Mykelti Lefau has been cleared of a broken jaw, but unclear if he will be declared fit to play.
Jacob Bauer – who has battled a hamstring injury this year – was also a late withdrawal from the VFL side, this time with a quad issue.
Sam Naismith: Confirmation of ACL
“Devastating news for Sam Naismith, who ruptured his ACL for the fourth time in yesterday’s VFL match at Sandringham
Sending love to Cray, who has worked incredibly hard ”
Richmond FC statement
That is so cruel with another long journey of rehab, and it won’t surprise me if he decides to step away from the game.
Totally agree Natopotato.
Must be heartbreaking for him. Yes, it wouldn’t surprise me if he retires. He has given his all to accomplish his dream.
Wishing him well.
Sydney: Luke Parker has been sent straight to the VFL Tribunal following a late bump on Dolphin Josh Smith left him with significant facial fractures and concussion.
Parker is facing a suspension that could be more than four weeks after the incident was graded as careless conduct, severe impact and high contact.
Sydney Swans midfielder Luke Parker has been handed a 6-match ban at the VFL Tribunal after an incident in Friday night’s 15-point loss to Frankston.
Essendon: Harrison Jones has been given a one-match ban for rough conduct on North Melbourne’s Zac Fisher.
Match Review Officer deemed the action to be careless, medium impact and high contact, resulting in the one-match suspension for rough conduct.
Match Review Officer:
Zak Butters has escaped suspension but has been fined for his hit on Hawthorn’s Lloyd Meek. Butters has been issued with a $10,000 fine ($6250 with an early plea) for rough conduct, which the Match Review Officer graded as intentional, low impact and body contact, resulting in the fine.

Didn’t a fine used to be only $1000-$2000?
They were increased this year.
With match payments going up and needed a stronger determent.
Melbourne: Jake Bowey rolled his ankle and was in a moon boot when he arrived at Tullamarine this afternoon.
Hey Chaos.
Is Yeo a chance this week?
Cheers.
It is expected that he will play.
I will keep you updated Tinka.

Simpson said on 7 News Perth tonight
Nice work. Cheers
Me – Surely Zach Reid will be back this week.
C.T – There’s a good chance, but don’t call me
Shirley
I liked it that you replied for me.Lol
I endorse my comment.
Cheers

Port Adelaide: Ollie Wines
Following consultation with his cardiologist, Ollie Wines has been cleared to train/play as normal after being subbed off yesterday with a recurrence of existing heart condition.
Club expects he’ll be available to face North on Saturday.
Great news but didn’t help when i lost my head to head by one point
Funny game this
Great site and thanks CT for all your efforts
Collingwood: Injury update
Tom Mitchell has been ruled out until Rd 13 at the earliest.
Will Hoskin-Elliott – Low-grade hamstring strain confirmed out until King’s Birthday.
Jordan De Goey in doubt for Friday night with more groin issues
Does that mean that Richards and Sullivan
are safe for a couple of weeks?
I would think so, Aces high.
North Melbourne: Charlie Comben
Alastair Clarkson says the long-term plan is still for Charlie Comben to be a forward-ruck. Roos were keen for him to get some continuity down back, in the hope there would be less injury risk
Port Adelaide: Josh Sinn has sustained a fractured collarbone.
Scans taken today has confirmed the injury and he has already undergone surgery to repair the fracture.
Expected to miss 6 weeks.
Port Adelaide: Has already posted their injury list.
Connor Rozee (hamstring) – available
Lachie Jones (hamstring) – available
Trent McKenzie (quad) – available
Quinton Narkle (foot) – available
Tom McCallum (hip flexor) – test
Ivan Soldo (knee) – 1-2 weeks
Hugh Jackson (hip) – 3-5 weeks
Lachie Charleson (knee) – 4-6 weeks
Josh Sinn (collarbone) – 6 weeks
Sam Powell-Pepper (knee) – season
GWS: Darcy Jones hamstring injury, with scans revealing damage to his hamstring tendon. He is expected to miss six-to-eight weeks.
“It’s also disappointing for Darcy that he has damaged his hamstring tendon which will sideline him for slightly longer than a traditional strain.
GWS: Jack Buckley will miss two to three weeks with a calf injury following Saturday’s game. Buckley played out the game with scans on Sunday revealing a calf strain.
Essendon: Darcy Parish will miss 3 games with a calf strain.
(If you missed the update post above)
Brisbane: Kai Lohmann is the Rising Star nominee for round 10
GWS: Leek Aleer will continue to progress through the 12-day concussion protocols but is expected to be available for selection this weekend.
“Leek will continue to tick off his requirements under the protocols but at this stage is feeling well and progressing as expected,”
Melbourne: Jake Lever (concussion/knee) set to undergo surgery and miss up to 4 weeks
Any news on GCoast’s McAndrew?
Hi Confused.
Mac Andrew’s scans were all clear
The Suns feared there may have been a leg fracture but despite the obvious soreness, the defender is fine.
I will update if he is going to play but looking good at the moment.
Thanks Chaos; you’re a Legend
Any updates on McKercher
Hi Madmadmick
It is expected that North will take a conservative approach and be managed until at least after their Round 12 bye.
Thanks CT
Collingwood: Jordan De Goey won’t play in Friday night’s Round 11 clash due to an abdominal strain
Jordan De Goey left Tuesday’s training early after failing to get through the session and will go for scans to determine the severity of his injury.
Western Bulldogs: Tom Liberatore
Luke Beveridge admits he will be nervous when Tom Liberatore comes back into the side in 2-3 weeks.
“It’s not like he’s out of the woods and everything’s OK. You hold your breath and sometimes you think ‘Don’t go for this one’. When he comes back they’ll be that nervousness he’ll cop another knock.
“I was talking to him this morning around technique and craft and some of the situations where he’s been hit in the head and what we can do to mitigate against it happening again. We’ll do a bit of work with that. Ground level stuff, just charge in, head-first. We can do it in other ways.”
He should borrow Daniel’s helmet
Helmets have no evidence that they help with concussion unfortunately, really misunderstood concept in the AFL.
Hmmm. Maybe common sense is sufficient evidence. Youve either never been hot in the head, or perhaps been hit too often.
Melbourne:
Melbourne are considering Harrison Petty returning to defence to replace Jake Lever.
Adam Tomlinson (def) + Tom Fullarton (fwd/ruck) travelled west as emergencies.
Jacob van Rooyen likely back from concussion.
Hore/Turner unavailable
Collingwood:
Edward Allan ( MID $123k) could come into consideration for his AFL debut in his homestate of Western Australia.
Craig McRae: “There’s a number of reasons why his name would be up in lights. He’s our fittest player, he can run further than most players in our team. After a couple of 6-day breaks, that may be an advantage.”
WCE: Matt Flynn could play his first game for the Eagles in the WALF this weekend.
Brisbane: Zac Bailey has been given the all clear to return this week and will be a selection consideration
Collingwood:
Two debutants have been announced to play for Collingwood this Friday night against Fremantle.
Edward Allan $123.9k MID & Wil Parker $102.4k DEF
Carlton: Marc Pittonet has hurt his finger again and won’t play against Gold Coast on Saturday.
Port Adelaide: Charlie Dixon is being managed so won’t play in Round 11
You would think that with Dixon out it would increase Sweet’s chances of playing this week.
Essendon: Nate Caddy (FWD $166k) to debut.
Essendon’s top pick in the 2023 National Draft, Caddy is an athletic key forward bound to excite fans.
At 193cm, Caddy has a strong presence up forward, using his ariel ability and strength to crash packs and take contested marks.
Throughout his draft year for the Northern Knights in the Coates Talent League, Caddy demonstrated his accuracy in front of goal, scoring 25 goals from nine games.
At VFL level this season, Caddy has been a key target, hitting the scoreboard 8 times, including three games where he has scored two majors.
Essendon FC
……..and keeping in mind his crash and bash and injured record…… ?????
Port Adelaide: Reports have come in the Jordan Sweet was training with the Port A team this morning (WED) with Visentini training with the B team…..
Could he be returning???!!!!
Are there any notable players going to get DPP or close to it after R11?
Slim pickings Stonks.
Ed Richards DEF/MID
Travis Boak MID/FWD
Jack Sinclair DEF/MID *64 %/36 %
Jack Carroll 34% fwd Will need to play a little bit forward this week.
Jase Burgoyne DEF/MID
Hugo Ralphsmith DEF/MID
Callum Ah Chee MID/FWD
Ben Ainsworth FWD/MID
Jack Williams RUCK/FWD
Angus Hastie DEF/MID
Very slim indeed, that’s unfortunate, thank you though.
Essendon: Jordan Ridley
We were very conservative with him. Felt he could’ve played the GWS game. He’s started this week knowing he’s playing AFL footy this week. He’ll come back in.”
Brad Scott
Sydney will appeal the six-game ban handed to Luke Parker
Dont know how you can possibly appeal that. Except to get it upgraded from careless to obviously deliberate.
Draft nominations closed on Monday.
Believe it or not. The supreme optimist goes to…
Phil Brown from Williamstown
From the Victorian Super Rules competition, who lodged his date of birth as 1973.
Any club need a mature-ager in his 50s?
Geelong?
…….. a team leader who knows the rules/laws……IMO Nth Melbourne…..
Collingwood:
An extended Collingwood squad headed to Perth.
Veterans Scott Pendlebury and Steele Sidebottom both on board off the six-day break.
Brody Mihocek off a hamstring.
Plus – Nathan Kreuger, Ash Johnson, Charlie Dean.
Injured Jordan De Goey also travelling
Melbourne: Training session today.
Petty remaining in attack during Demons match sim.
Adam Tomlinson in a three-tall backline with Tom McDonald and Steven May.
Ben Brown playing in the B side with Jacob van Rooyen in A side and pushing to return from concussion.
Fremantle: Sean Darcy
Justin Longmuir has confirmed that Sean Darcy will return for the Dockers tomorrow night against Collingwood to partner up once again with Luke Jackson.
GWS:
Leek Aleer is likely to come in for the injured Jack Buckley.
James Peatling, who had a superb showing in the VFL last week, is also in the mix for a recall.
North Melbourne: Kallan Dawson will return from his ankle injury via the VFL after six weeks out.
Fremantle: Justin Longmuir said that he plans to tag Nick Daicos.
Collingwood:
Charlie Dean will return for Collingwood tomorrow night. Oleg Markov has remained in Melbourne due to a personal reason and won’t face Fremantle. Brody Mihocek cleared to return
Interesting that in Clarko’s presser today he said that both Simpkin and McKercher were pressing to play this round but with the club having the round 12 bye the club is taking a conservative approach.

If I have J richards and Darcy on bench both emergencies, will the highest score be counted from these two?

Jacob Wehr named as his replacement.
Harry Rowston has been added to the emergencies list.
Geelong: Jhye Clark
Will be in the starting 22 for round 11.
Chris Scott
Port Adelaide: Ivan Soldo
He’ll play limited minutes in the SANFL this weekend, which could mean Jordon Sweet’s recall to the senior side is only temporary.
Port’s bye is only a fortnight away following clashes with Roos & Blues.
Ken Hinkley says there’s “a real chance” Ivan Soldo returns to Port’s line up for next Thursday’s clash with Carlton.
Don’t think Hinkley should risk rushing him back in just before the byes after what happened to Rozee.
……..Sweet could also be required to play up Forward
Ref: Logical, Injuries and Crystal Ball……
Richmond: Tylar Young
It is suspected that he has suffered ruptured ACL in the VFL curtain raiser today. Will undergo scans tomorrow morning.
Richmond have had three players rupture their ACLs this year – Josh Gibcus, Sam Naismith and Judson Clarke
Max Gawn doing fitness test prior to today’s game
Match Review
Mark Blicavs and Jhye Clark have both copped one-match bans for high bumps on Greater Western Sydney’s Lachie Whitfield on Saturday in two seperate incidents.
Both incidents were graded careless, medium impact and high contact, leading to a one-match ban for both players.
Bah, thought I was finally get some cash gen out of Clark!

Ginnivan interviewed on SEN this morning mentioned that Lloyd Meek was sore in 4th quarter of yesterdays game and might not get up for next week.
Not sure how to much to read into Dr. Ginny’s analysis but thought worth a mention.
