GEELONG will be without Jeremy Cameron, Jack Bowes, Isaac Smith and Mitch Duncan for its practice match against Brisbane on Thursday night, while Port Adelaide has called Zak Butters back into its side for its game against Fremantle.
The Cats have welcomed back forward Gary Rohan to face the Lions, but Cameron, Smith, Bowes and Duncan are all missing, with Duncan (calf injury) having also sat out last week's clash with the Hawks. Key forward Tom Hawkins and defender Jack Henry also remain sidelined due to their respective foot injuries.
>> SCROLL DOWN FOR FULL SQUADS
Former St Kilda defender Darragh Joyce will play his first game for Brisbane, with fellow Irishmen Conor McKenna and James Madden also named in the 26-man squad, while former skipper Dayne Zorko will again miss due to a hamstring injury.
Collingwood has named Brody Mihocek, Josh Carmichael and recruit Oleg Markov for its hitout against Hawthorn in Launceston, but the Magpies will be without tough defender Brayden Maynard and prized draftee Ed Allan.
The Hawks have given a first game to top draft pick Cam Mackenzie while veteran Luke Breust also returns having missed last week's match simulation against Geelong.
Butters and Darcy Byrne-Jones return for the Power after both missed last week's hitout against West Coast, but recruit Junior Rioli will miss due to illness and veteran Travis Boak is out due to a rib injury.
The Dockers have already confirmed prized recruit Luke Jackson will miss due to a head knock, while speedy forwards Michael Walters and Michael Frederick remain on the injured list.

There will be three practice matches on each of Thursday, Friday and Saturday this week, with all games to be broadcast live on Kayo Sports and Foxtel and live scores on afl.com.au and the AFL Live app.
