- Matthew Boyd, Dale Morris, Matt Suckling join long Dogs' injury list
- Roos regain Jarrad Waite, and drop Majak Daw for clash with Saints
- Co-captain Jarrad McVeigh returns for the Swans against Dockers

SYDNEY Swans co-captain Jarrad McVeigh has been passed fit to play in Sunday's test against Fremantle in Perth, but there is still no room for fellow veterans Ted Richards or Ben McGlynn.

McVeigh returns after a groin issue as one of only two changes for the Swans. Big man Toby Nankervis has also been included to replace Callum Sinclair (knee) with last week's first-gamer Jordan Foote omitted.

Emergencies Richards, McGlynn and Foote will all travel with the team suggesting there could be at least one late change.

Fremantle's former skipper Matthew Pavlich returns for his 350th game on Sunday after he was rested last week.

Matt de Boer, Alex Silvagni and Darcy Tucker have also been included for the Dockers. Silvagni is playing his first game of the season and de Boer just his third.

The Dockers have dropped Nick Suban, Jonathon Griffin, Tendai Mzungu and Connor Blakely. Zac Clarke is set to play as the lone specialist ruckman.

Gold Coast has made just one change for its trip to face Melbourne at the MCG on Sunday with veteran Matt Rosa returning from his hamstring issue in place of Seb Tape.

The Demons have named hardened onballer Aaron vandenBerg to return from a hip complaint that kept him out of the trip west last week. Alex Neal-Bullen makes way as the only change.

Adelaide has lost skipper Taylor Walker (ankle) and defender Ricky Henderson (quad) for what should be a straightforward clash against bottom side Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Sunday's late game.

The Crows have named David Mackay and Paul Seedsman as the replacements.

The Bombers will be without James Kelly (rested), Mitch Brown (groin) and Shaun McKernan (illness), with James Polkinghorne, Craig Bird and Sam Michael coming into the side as the three inclusions.

Meanwhile, the injury-ravaged Western Bulldogs have lost five key players for Friday night's season-defining clash against Geelong, although the returns of stars Jake Stringer and Luke Dahlhaus have softened the blow.

Matthew Boyd and Matt Suckling (both Achilles) have joined Mitch Wallis (broken leg), Jack Redpath (knee) and Dale Morris (hamstring) on the sidelines as the fall-out from last Saturday night's disastrous loss to St Kilda continues.

Gun forward Stringer, Dahlhaus, veteran Jed Adcock, defender Joel Hamling and, in a surprise, Zaine Cordy have been called in for the trip to the Cattery.

It will be Cordy's first game for the season and it comes after his indefinite club-imposed ban for an alcohol-fuelled incident with big-money teammate Tom Boyd.

The Cats have made only one change, adding ruckman Zac Smith for forward omitted Shane Kersten, with defender Lachie Henderson not named for the second week after the concussion he suffered against Fremantle.

West Coast has left star ruckman Nic Naitanui out of its side for Saturday's crucial match against Collingwood at the MCG, although important midfielder Dom Sheed is finally back from injury for his first game this season.
The Eagles have made four changes, adding Will Schofield, Mark Hutchings and Simon Tunbridge for his first appearance in 2016.

Midfield recruit Jack Redden's tough year continues due to a shoulder injury, while defender Tom Barrass has been rested and ruckman Jonathan Giles and Jackson Nelson are both omitted.

The Magpies have lost Alex Fasolo (shoulder), Jarryd Blair (groin) and Ben Sinclair (concussion) and called up Jordan De Goey, Rupert Wills and Ben Crocker.

North Melbourne has been boosted by strong-marking forward Jarrad Waite's comeback from a hip complaint for Brent Harvey's record-breaking 427th game against St Kilda at Etihad Stadium on Saturday night.

After taking one of the marks of the season last week, Majak Daw goes out of the Roos' side in the only change to the team which overcame Collingwood.

Saints coach Alan Richardson has brought back small forward Darren Minchington to replace Jack Sinclair in the only swap to the side that upset the Bulldogs last round.

Veteran onballer Ryan Griffen will make his return for Greater Western Sydney when the Giants host Richmond in Canberra on Saturday, with Adam Tomlinson making way.

The Tigers welcome back Bachar Houli from a wrist injury for the first time since round seven, while Ty Vickery has been recalled alongside Kane Lambert and mature-age debutant Adam Marcon.

But Richmond has lost Shane Edwards (calf), Ben Griffiths (groin), while Liam McBean and Jason Castagna have been omitted.

Carlton has reprieved Andrejs Everitt for the club's first-ever clash in Tasmania as Blues coach Brendon Bolton returns home and attempts to end former club Hawthorn's 18-game winning streak in Launceston.

Young forward Charlie Curnow (knee) goes out of the side in the Blues' only change.

The Hawks have lost small forward Paul Puopolo (hip), with tough nut Will Langford coming in.

Buoyed after snapping their winless streak against Essendon, the Brisbane Lions will unveil debutant Archie Smith among five changes in Saturday night's clash with Port Adelaide.

Former NAB AFL Rising Star winner Lewy Taylor, Nick Robertson and Michael Close are also into the team. Sam Skinner was originally selected to make his debut, but unfortunately ruptured his ACL at training on Thursday.

Out go emerging forward Josh Schache (general soreness), star ruckman Stefan Martin (rested), Rohan Bewick (groin), Reuben William (groin) and Darcy Gardiner (ankle).

The Power have omitted forward Jay Schulz and the hard-running Kane Mitchell, with Nathan Krakouer and Karl Amon coming in.
