AFL TEAMS
Teams for the 2024 AFL Season
Dusty back for 300; Daicos listed – AFL Teams Round 14, 2024
In a surprising move ahead of this week’s crucial matches, Port Adelaide has decided to drop veteran forward Charlie Dixon for their clash against GWS. This decision comes just three weeks after Dixon was listed as ‘managed’. Jeremy Finlayson has also been omitted from the squad. On the other side, GWS might see the return of Josh Kelly (calf) and Jack Buckley.
For Richmond fans, there’s excitement in the air as superstar Dustin Martin (299 games) and Tom Lynch (hamstring) are set to return on Saturday. Lynch’s comeback is particularly significant as he has missed nine games since the Tigers’ Round 3 victory over Sydney. Unfortunately, Dion Prestia (calf) continues to struggle with soft-tissue injuries and will miss out.
Hawthorn supporters will be pleased to see Nick Watson back in action after his impressive performance for Box Hill in the VFL, where he scored eight goals in two weeks. Ruckman Lloyd Meek also joins Sam Mitchell’s lineup.
The Brisbane Lions, fresh off a thrilling win against the Western Bulldogs, have opted for stability and will field an unchanged team for their Friday night face-off against St Kilda. The Saints, however, will be missing Dougal Howard (hamstring) and Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera (personal reasons) among their four changes for the trip to The Gabba.
The Western Bulldogs have good news with the return of Ed Richards (concussion protocols) and Cody Weightman (arm). Despite some initial doubts, Marcus Bontempelli (illness) has been named in the squad.
Adelaide will face a tough challenge without Taylor Walker (back) for their Saturday night home game against ladder-leading Sydney. The Crows have also made the bold decision to drop three underperforming players. Meanwhile, the Swans head to South Australia with an unchanged lineup.
In other team news, Colby McKercher remains out for North Melbourne, while Nick Daicos (shin) has been listed by Craig McRae for Collingwood, despite being subbed out on King’s Birthday.
