THE ADDUCTOR strain that saw Marcus Bontempelli subbed out last week will keep the emerging Western Bulldogs star from facing Port Adelaide on Saturday night at Adelaide Oval.
But the Power will still have to contend with a strong Dogs attack, with the return of forward pair Jake Stringer and Stewart Crameri.
First-year small forward Toby McLean is set to make his AFL debut, but in-form senior Bulldog Liam Picken has been lost to a hamstring and Shane Biggs omitted.
Power big man Paddy Ryder will miss again with an Achilles injury, with just Aaron Young coming in for the omitted Nathan Krakouer.
Carlton ruckman Matthew Kreuzer will line up for his first game since round one last year after a long battle with foot issues and three games in the VFL.
The Blues' big man has been named to face Adelaide on Saturday afternoon at the MCG, as one of three big inclusions alongside captain Marc Murphy and Chris Judd.
They have lost Dale Thomas to a toe injury while forward Liam Jones has been omitted and Chris Yarran has been dropped for not meeting club standards.
The Crows will be strengthened by the return of Rory Sloane, who has missed three games with a cheekbone injury, while Brodie Smith returns from concussion and Kyle Hartigan has been called up from the SANFL.
Young defender Jay Lever is out with an ankle and Jarryd Lyons and Brodie Martin have been dropped, with Richard Douglas still out with a foot injury.
Fremantle's machine continues to run smoothly, with the premiership fancy and ladder leader unchanged for the second straight week. The Dockers have named Lee Spurr to face Richmond on Friday night at Domain Stadium despite the defender suffering a corked leg last week.
The Tigers have named Ty Vickery at the expense of Liam McBean, but both travelled to Perth on Thursday afternoon, with Vickery to fully test out his knee and ankle before the game.
Andrew Raines and Matt Shaw have been called up for Gold Coast's clash with the Sydney Swans at Metricon Stadium on Saturday, with Charlie Dixon and Jack Martin on one-week club suspensions for drinking before last week's game. Alex Sexton is out with a hip injury.
The Suns' first draftee from last year, Peter Wright, will make his AFL debut after showing positive form in the NEAFL.
Nick Malceski, who has battled a four-week knee issue but returned last week in the NEAFL, has missed out on facing his former team.
The Swans backline has been strengthened by the return of Heath Grundy, who was a late withdrawal last week with quad tightness, and Jake Lloyd has been recalled. They lost Ben McGlynn to a hamstring and dropped Brandon Jack.
As expected, Essendon has lost Jobe Watson (groin) and Dustin Fletcher (adductor) for Saturday night's clash with Geelong at Etihad Stadium.
The Bombers have omitted Jackson Merrett from last week's team but have recalled Orazio Fantasia and Elliot Kavanagh, while former Saint James Gwilt will replace Fletcher in the backline.
Geelong will face the Bombers without Mitch Clark, with the former Demon to miss with the calf he injured last week against West Coast. Forward Josh Walker has been called up.
The Giants have named debutant Jack Steele in an extended squad to face another depleted Brisbane Lions' outfit at Spotless Stadium on Sunday. Rory Lobb, Zac Williams, Nathan Wilson and co-captain Phil Davis are back, with Nick Haynes (groin) and Adam Kennedy their only outs so far.
Injury has forced the Lions into at least five changes, but experienced midfielder Pearce Hanley will play for the first time year.
Father-son selection Josh Clayton, Josh McGuinness and Hugh Beasley have been named for their possible first games, while Mitch Golby, Sam Mayes, Jordon Bourke and Tom Cutler have also been added to the squad.
The teams loses captain Tom Rockliff to broken ribs, defender Jed Adcock to a calf, forward Ryan Harwood to concussion, and midfielders Claye Beams (knee) and James Aish (jaw).
Despite North Melbourne coach Brad Scott threatening to make wholesale changes last week after the Roos' 'disgusting' loss to Collingwood, young pair Luke McDonald and Kayne Turner are the only two dropped so far.
However the Roos are yet to finalise their team to face West Coast on Sunday at Blundstone Arena and could make further changes, with Andrew Swallow, Scott McMahon, Majak Daw, Ben Jacobs and Mason Wood all additions at this stage.
The Eagles have added Mark Hutchings, Elliot Yeo and Dom Sheed to their squad, with no outs yet.
Farren Ray will line up for St Kilda for his first game for the year after pre-season hamstring surgery.
He's been named on the field for the Saints' clash with Hawthorn on Sunday at Etihad Stadium, while Seb Ross, who also underwent a hamstring operation in March, is in the extended squad.
Tom Curren has also been named as a potential replacement for the suspended Mav Weller, along with Shane Savage and Darren Minchington. First-year defender Hugh Goddard has been named for his AFL debut. Daniel McKenzie (concussion) and Luke Dunstan (rested) are out.
Jordan Lewis is back for the Hawks while Ryan Schoenmakers, Will Langford and Jonathan O'Rourke have been added to the squad. Forward Paul Puopolo will miss with a foot injury.
Melbourne has thrown Max Gawn, Aidan Riley, Viv Michie and Ben Newton into the mix for Monday's clash with Collingwood at the MCG.
Rohan Bail is the Demons' only omission at this stage, while the Magpies have lost midfielder Taylor Adams to a toe complaint.
Brayden Maynard – the Magpies' third pick in last year's NAB AFL Draft - is in the squad, along with Sam Dwyer, Tim Broomhead and Ben Kennedy.
