Wednesday – Early news
Teamsheets for the first game of round 17, Cats vs Dees this Thursday, have dropped! Some good ruck early news for once, a double dees ruck duo return with both Luke Jackson and Max Gawn likely to return, and also Tim English looks set to return for the Dogs! Also staying with the doggies, Treloars Hammie concern isnt too serious and he isnt listed as an injury, but with recent issues with Zorko and Hall, Id be wary. Blues rookie Sam Durdin is available for selection, but seeing as Weitering is back as well, I’d argue his selection chances are low. Unfortunately we lose another possible downgrade option that was looking good, with pies def rookie Charlie Dean injuring his foot.
Thursday – Update
Tristan Xerri for the roos, just adds even more ruck carnage by being out for awhile with a shoulder injury.
Important times to remember:

GAME 1: Thursday July 7, Cats vs Dees
Notes: GAs confirmed earlier, Gawn and Jackson are back. Those still holding on their bench, Sam De Koning is also back for the cats. Not so DT relevant anymore himself, Joel Selwood is back, but this could affect cats midfielders such as Guthrie.

GAME 2: Friday July 8, Swans vs Dogs
Notes: As reported, Tim English is back!. Maybe some teams still had McComb who has been dropped. Those who grabbed Dominic Bedendo last week would be happy he held another week.

GAME 3: Saturday July 9, Pies vs Roos
Notes: We already knew about Aaron Halls hammie injury, and as the update above, Tristan Xerri has a shoulder injury. Cheap defender Aiden Bonar is in if you are desperate for a def cashcow.

GAME 4: Saturday July 9, Suns vs Tigers
Notes: Question marks have been over Dustin Martin this week, who is now confirmed as an out with an injury. Those who grabbed him last week, would be disappointed with James Tsitas omission.

Notes: It was reported Zak Butters was a likely in this week, and here he is. The odd team might have James Peatling on their bench who was playing well before his injury, hes also back in. Also…sorry, no Preuss

GAME 7: Sunday July 10, Lions vs Dons
Notes: Massive ins and outs for Lions, nothing much bigger than in form Kaidean Coleman who has been struck down with the dreaded covid protocols. Another POD that was killing it, Jarrod Berry, is unfortunately out injured as well. We already knew about hammie injuries to both Rich and Zorko. Lions rookies Carter Michael and Harry Sharp are on the extended bench so check friday for selections.
