AFL Teams 2025: Round 4

Thursday – Early news

Teamsheets have dropped! Last of the early byes with Dons and Hawks. Early news, debutant Will White (Fwd, $230K) has been named, and Jordan Caldwell is out with a hamstring injury, although its his bye you might want to trade regardless. Marc Pittonet is listed as 1 week which may cause concern for Tom De Koning owners. Tom Stewart is a test after avoiding serious injury last week, and Xavier Lindsay is only 1-2 weeks away so is still a hold for some. Zak Butters and Jack Steele are also tests and are both a chance to play.

GAME 1: Collingwood vs Carlton

Thursday, April 3, 7:30pm AEDT MCG Melbourne 🌦🌡

Notes:UPDATE: Moir and Long are named subs in this game. Unfortunately for those who held Camporeale he isn’t in for the Blues, but we do get a new rookie with Will White (Fwd, $230K). Aston Moir (Fwd, $230K) is also a potential downgrade option.

GAME 2: Geelong Cats vs Melbourne

Friday, April 4, 7:40pm AEDT GMHBA Stadium Geelong 🌦🌡

Notes: Massive out for those who had midpricer Knevitt. Stewart is officially back, but with a massive break even, he’s probably more watchlist than pickup this week. Xavier Lindsay remains out for another 1?2 weeks. A few will be eyeing off second-year Cat Shaun Mannagh as a potential forward downgrade option.

GAME 3: Gold Coast Suns vs Adelaide Crows

Saturday, April 5, 1:20pm AEDT (12:20pm Local Time) People First Stadium Gold Coast 🌦🌡

Notes: Matt Crouch is out for the Crows which could open the door for bigger midfield loads for the likes of Jordan Dawson and Jake Soligo.

GAME 4: Richmond vs Brisbane Lions

Saturday, April 5, 4:15pm AEDT MCG Melbourne 🌦🌡

Notes:Oscar McInerney returns and could be considered a POD option in the ruck for those looking to go unique. Will McLachlan (Fwd $252k) scored a handy 50 vs eagles last time he played and could be a cashcow option.

GAME 5: North Melbourne vs Sydney Swans

Saturday, April 5, 7:35pm AEDT Marvel Stadium Melbourne 🌦🌡

Notes: Matt Whitlock (Def/Fwd, $262K) will debut for North Melbourne. A potential swing option for those chasing flexibility, though scoring may be limited early on.

GAME 6: GWS Giants vs West Coast Eagles

Notes: Elijah Hewett is out for the Eagles. Watch closely for possible debutants Sandy Brock, Tom Gross, and Hamish Davis who are all on the extended bench for West Coast. Final Sunday selections drop ~5pm Friday.

Notes: Make sure you check Sunday extended selections at ~5pm on Friday. Both Zak Butters and Jack Steele passed fitness tests and are named. Harry Boyd, popular ruck cover, is named on the extended bench. Watch for a possible debut for Hugh Boxshall (Mid, $230K), who impressed during the pre-season.

GAME 8: Fremantle vs Western Bulldogs

Notes: Make sure you check Sunday extended selections at ~5pm on Friday. Jordan Croft (Fwd, $200K) is a potential debut for the Dogs, watch extended. Will Brodie is also on the extended bench?he’s been a past DT scorer and worth monitoring. Jaeger O’Meara has a low breakeven and could be value for those needing a mid downgrade.
