CARLTON will be without several key players for its match against Melbourne on Friday. Tall forward Phoebe McWilliams has been ruled out for the rest of the season with a fractured foot, while fellow forward Darcy Vescio will miss at least one game with a fractured finger.

Amelia Velardo and Paige Trudgeon have also entered 12-day concussion protocols. With a growing injury list, Carlton has elevated train on player, former Tiger, Giant and Pie Christina Bernardi to its primary list and she will be available for selection this week.

Positively, Collingwood forward Aishling Sheridan will be out for up to a month with a knee injury, after initial concerns it would be season-ending news.

Geelong has confirmed that Renee Garing will become available for selection next month, after giving birth to son Parker in May, and Rachel Kearns remains a chance to return late in the season despite a severe AC joint injury in round one.

Melbourne's Sinead Goldrick is a test for her first game of the season, after battling a knee injury over the last month, and despite playing last week Katie Brennan remains a test for Saturday's game against Brisbane with a persistent foot concern.

Fremantle duo Madi Scanlon (wrist) and Roxy Roux (ankle) are tests, while Ebony Antonio edges closer to a potential return from a preseason knee injury.

Grace Kelly's St Kilda debut has been put on hold as she now manages an achilles flare up, but the Saints are set to regain Clara Fitzpatrick who missed last week due to personal reasons.

Sydney forward Aleisha Newman will miss with an ankle injury, but Cynthia Hamilton is on track for a return after concussion forced her to the sidelines. Meanwhile West Coast veteran Jess Sedunary will sit out for two weeks with a torn calf.
