Geelong vs. Western Bulldogs team news, selection, injuries
The Cats lose Patrick Dangerfield and Jack Bowes to hamstring injuries, although their losses will be mitigated somewhat by the returns of Tom Stewart and Rhys Stanley and possibly Mitch Knevitt.
George Stephens and Ted Clohesy had big games in the VFL last week should the Cats wish to bolster their midfield stocks without Danger and Bowes.
Bailey Smith hasn't trained fully all week and might be a late withdrawal, but it could easily be Geelong playing mind games.
The Cats hid the superstar from the media but insisted he completed training indoors.
Despite the big win over Port Adelaide in round 10, Shannon Neale and Connor O'Sullivan could be squeezed out to make room for the returning talls.
For the Bulldogs, they will be without Arty Jones, who picked up a hamstring injury, but Liam Jones could be in the mix, pending a fitness test.
There's some uncertainty around Adam Treloar's availability, but with the bye next week, the club may take a cautious approach.
Beyond that, expect Luke Beveridge to stick strong with his side.
Essendon vs. Richmond team news, selection, injuries
Essendon were thumped by the Bulldogs last week and Brad Scott may be tempted to swing the axe, although with no VFL game last week, the selectors may be forced to hold fire.
Jade Gresham could come in after an injury absence, while Darcy Parish is expected to play in the VFL.
Should changes be coming, the likes of Zak Johnson, Angus Clarke and Elijah Tsatas will be putting pressure on Ben Hobbs, Archer Day-Wicks, Archie Perkins and Saad El-Hawli to keep their spots.
Several forced changes are coming at the Tigers, with Tom Lynch sidelined with concussion and Noah Balta due to his court-ordered curfew, opening the door for Liam Fawcett and Campbell Gray in the key positions.
Tyler Sonsie and James Trezise got plenty of it in the twos if the Tigers want to go smaller.
Dion Prestia, Tylar Young and Samson Ryan are all likely to play in the VFL.
Carlton vs. GWS team news, selection, injuries
Plenty of watches for the Blues following their loss to Sydney.
They're hopeful Blake Acres, Tom De Koning and Lachie Fogarty will return pending fitness tests, while Jack Silvagni has been cleared of major damage to his groin and will be given every chance
They do lose Jordan Boyd to concussion.
At the front of the queue to come in is Sam Docherty who was prolific in the VFL, while Harry Lemmey, Billy Wilson and Harry O'Farrell will all be in consideration depending how many changes are required.
GWS will be without Finn Callaghan and Toby McMullin at the very least.
Cody Angove, Toby Bedford and Aaron Cadman were ineffective in the loss to Fremantle and could find themselves under the pump, with James Leake and Harry Rowston impressing in the rVFL while Josaia Delana, Leek Aleer and Ryan Angwin were last week's reserves.
Hawthorn vs. Brisbane team news, selection, injuries
Four Hawks could come into the side, with Jack Gunston, Lloyd Meek, Jarman Impey and Conor Nash available after missing last week for various reasons.
Luke Breust comes out with a back injury, but the other outs are less clear, although Calsher Dear may be nervous after five touches before being subbed.
For Brisbane, Jarrod Berry and Oscar McInerney are expected to put their hands up for selection, with ruckman Darcy Fort set to make way if McInerney gets up in time.
Conor McKenna started as sub and kicked a goal in limited time but could miss out in favour of Berry.
North Melbourne vs. Collingwood team news, selection, injuries
A winning North Melbourne side will be strengthened by the return of gun small forward Paul Curtis from suspension - having kicked 18 goals from seven games this season.
It seems likely that substitute Zane Duursma would be top candidate for axing to accommodate the return of Curtis.
Expect minimal other changes from Alastair Clarkson as he rewards a victory.
There is likely to be movement at Collingwood selection with veteran Steele Sidebottom tipped to be rested after his incredible start to the season.
Darcy Moore (shoulder) will return if he passes a test, while Dan Houston suffered a corked calf against Adelaide and will need to get through training.
Lachie Schultz will remain in concussion protocols for another week.
Fremantle (Walyalup) vs. Port Adelaide (Yartapuulti) team news, selection, injuries
The Dockers will likely have Sean Darcy (knee) available but will they bring him straight back in or give him another week to recuperate?
Luke Jackson excelled as Fremantle's no.1 ruckman in the team's best performance of the season last week, giving Justin Longmuir a positive selection headache.
Nathan O'Driscoll (ankle) is likely to return through the WAFL with a winning team likely to remain settled.
Any inclusions could see Isaiah Dudley face the axe after getting subbed off against the Giants.
It's panic stations at Port Adelaide with Jason Horne-Francis (hamstring) out for four weeks, while Lachie Jones has the same injury but longer-term.
Josh Sinn (hip) was also subbed out last week and looks in significant doubt to travel west.
Travis Boak and Jed McEntee look like locks for promotion to the senior, while sub Christian Moreas should get a starting spot.
Adelaide (Kuwarna) vs. West Coast (Wallitj Marawar) team news, selection, injuries
With the smallest injury list in the league, Adelaide hasn't been forced to make many changes this season.
After a loss to Collingwood, there could be room for unforced changes with top draftee Sid Draper looming as the most likely inclusion.
Veteran forward Taylor Walker could be rested after a couple of lean weeks, while Luke Nankervis or Zac Taylor could come out for Draper.
West Coast's big win against St Kilda should see Andrew McQualter reward his senior players.
However, Matt Owies (calf) and Jamie Cripps (knee) will both miss the next month, meaning two players need to be brought in.
Tom Gross will likely come into the 22, while Noah Long, Tyrell Dewar and Bo Allan will be the candidates for the two vacancies.
Jeremy McGovern is out indefinitely after seeking expert opinion on his concussion injury.
Melbourne vs. Sydney team news, selection, injuries
Seemingly no injury concerns for the Dees, with Jake Lever and Jack Viney potentially being added to the side that beat Brisbane.
If Xavier Lindsay is to miss out following a heavy knock, Lever could take his spot.
The Swans lose Joel Amartey and Justin McInerney to suspension, while Aaron Francis misses out with injury.
Hayden McLean was quiet after being dropped but may be recalled due to the need for some size.
Callum Mills and Taylor Adams both had positive games in the VFL last week and could provide some much-needed injury relief, while Ben Paton also got plenty of it in the reserves.
St Kilda (Euro-Yroke) vs. Gold Coast team news, selection, injuries
Will Ross Lyon make a selection statement after St Kilda's woeful performance against West Coast?
It will be difficult with Jack Macrae ruled out for a few weeks with a punctured lung.
Several players will stare down the axe including Lance Collard, Angus McLennan and Hugo Garcia.
Expect Hunter Clark, Zak Jones and Hugh Boxshall to come into the team after dominant performances at VFL level.
Gold Coast should select a similar team to last week's win against Hawthorn.
Ned Moyle struggled to have a strong impact as second ruck and could find himself replaced by Ethan Read.
Sub David Swallow could have earned promotion to the senior team with an impactful performance.
