Teamsheets have dropped! Early news, be aware there are two Friday games this round. Docherty has called time for the Blues and tonight’s game will be his last. Will Day is back, and if you wanted a risky but cheaper pick you might jump on. Rozee is still listed as a test so owners will be watching this teamsheet closely. Don’t get caught out by the 2 Friday night games this week.
Important times to remember:
Thurs Teamsheets ~6:20pm EST Wed
Weekend Teamsheets ~6:20pm EST Thurs
Sunday games Extended bench selection ~5:00pm EST Friday
Notes: If you wanted an unders midfield, Will Day is finally back, but after such a long time out with an injury I’d consider it a bit too risky unless you were desperate for a late season POD. Docherty’s last game tonight creates an interesting dilemma for owners ? he could score well but is guaranteed to not play again for the season. Finn Maginness out is relevant for Blues mids likely to be tagged.

GAME 2: Essendon Bombers vs Western Bulldogs
Friday, July 25, 7:20pm EST Marvel Stadium Melbourne 🌦🌬🌙
Notes: Vigo Visentini is out after Goldi had his rest, and unfortunately cashcow Archer May has been dropped. We see Saad El-Hawli back on the list, but red flag, he is a favourite for subs in the past, (He is named on field however so this risk seems low). We also see bench rookie Jedd Busslinger back in for the Dogs.

Notes: The second Friday game – we see Kelly back in for the Giants. Rowston, after painfully being subbed for owners last week, has been dropped. I doubt anyone realistically still has Bice, but he’s been dropped again. After scoring a couple of 1s and then a 32, no one surely has Gruzewski unless he’s unluckily stuck on your bench.

GAME 4: Gold Coast Suns vs Brisbane Lions
Saturday, July 26, 1:20pm EST People First Stadium Gold Coast 🌦🌬
Notes: The Q clash! Cashcow Kai Lohman was still in some squads – he is out with an injury. Jepson is a POD cashcow that has been dropped. With Daniel Rioli out, maybe Weller could be a hail mary type midprice option? I wouldn’t – there are better options. He’s back after being out for a while.

GAME 6: North Melbourne Kangaroos vs Geelong Cats
Saturday, July 26, 7:35pm EST Marvel Stadium Melbourne 🌦🌬🌙
Notes: No changes for Cats (yet…). Teakle has been named as the main ruck for the Roos, which could be handy for a short-term play with Callum Coleman-Jones out long term. Finnbar Maley is a bit pricey as a cashcow for this stage of the season, but could be a handy play if you wanted ruck bench cover.

GAME 7: Adelaide Crows vs Port Adelaide Power
Saturday, July 26, 8:10pm EST Adelaide Oval Adelaide 🌦🌬🌙
Notes: Probably the big one for this week, Rozee has been named, but with his injury concerns I’d have backup. Talking about backup, cashcow Liddy after a painful sub last week has been dropped (just like Rowston!). No changes for the in-form Crows.

A windy cold day in 2015, I was bored, sick with the flu, and decided to start a blog about Teamsheets. I was immediately recruited by Warnie and somehow am now a DTTALK author.
