AFL Teams Round 10 2023: Team news, line

Aug 27, 2023

Collingwood duo Jack Ginnivan and Ash Johnson have trained on Saturday morning as they look to overcome sickness to take their place in Sunday.

The pair missed training on Friday having been sent home from the club under its strict policy surrounding players suffering from illness.

Ruckman Darcy Cameron appears set to return to the senior side as the substitute in Sunday's blockbuster match with arch rival Carlton after being left out of the starting 22.

Despite Cameron training on Friday, Magpies coach Craig McRae said Cameron was in the frame to be named the sub as the club looks to gradually ramp him back up to action in his first game since Round 3 after getting struck down with an MCL injury.

It's a luxury the top-of-the-ladder Pies have been afforded after Mason Cox returned from a ruptured spleen a fortnight ago to head up the ruck division, with the American big man coming off a massive performance against the Giants last weekend, recording 19 disposals, nine marks, 24-hit-outs and kicking two goals.

"We’ll name (Cameron) in our 23. What that looks like, we’re not sure yet," McRae told reporters on Friday.

"We’ll work through that in match committee and weigh up if he has done enough work, whether we start with him on the ground or we may potentially sub him.

"We’ll weigh up what numbers Darcy has done in terms of load and whether we start him or we may sub him."

It comes as there's doubts around Collingwood forwards Jack Ginnivan and Ash Johnson's availability for Sunday's match as they battle sickness despite both players being named in the 22.

McRae revealed the pair got sent home from the club under its strict policy surrounding players suffering from illness and said it’d make a call on Saturday on whether or not they play,

Opponents Carlton have demoted midfielder George Hewett from the 22 and will deploy him as the sub, while Alex Cincotta has been omitted entirely. Tom de Koning was originally named on an extended bench but didn't make the side, meaning the off-contract key forward/ruckman will miss a fifth-straight AFL game.

Elsewhere, West Coast's injury crisis has deepened further with star defender Tom Barrass now set to miss the clash with Hawthorn in Launceston.

Barass missed the flight with his teammates yesterday with the club opting to give him every chance to feel better and join the team before the game.

Every fit Eagles player is in Launceston.

St Kilda spearhead Max King's return from injury in his first game of the year – and first match in 273 days – has been confirmed in Sunday's meeting with GWS at Giants Stadium.

Fellow Saints Jade Gresham and Jimmy Webster also come in, while GWS skipper Toby Greene is back for the home side in a big boost.

Richmond co-captain and ruckman Toby Nankervis has meanwhile been named for Richmond's Dreamtime at the G’ clash with Essendon, while Jacob Hopper will miss with a calf injury that will sideline him for the medium term.

North Melbourne has made seven changes - six forced - to the side that lost by 70 points to Port Adelaide, in what will be Brett Ratten's first game in charge as interim coach following Alastair Clarkson's decision to take indefinite leave.

Ben Cunnington has been named as an emergency.

Luke Davies-Uniacke and Cameron Zurhaar are among the injuries, while the news is also bleak for opponents Sydney.

The Swans have made four forced changes, with Logan McDonald, Tom Hickey and Callum Mills among the outs.

Peter Ladhams is one of three inclusions.

Geelong will be without Mitch Duncan for Saturday afternoon's clash against Fremantle, with the star midfielder suffering a hamstring injury.

Ollie Henry will also miss due to injury along with Jhye Clark, but the side will be bolstered by the inclusions of Jack Henry, Brad Close and Tyson Stengle.

Star Adelaide forward Taylor Walker has been managed for Saturday's game against the Western Bulldogs, despite kicking five goals in the win over St Kilda last week.

Nat Fyfe has been named in Walyalup's (Fremantle) starting 22 after being the sub for the past two weeks.

Narrm (Melbourne) coach Simon Goodwin has turned to Tom McDonald to replace the injured Harrison Petty for Friday night's clash with Yartapuulti (Port Adelaide).

Christian Salem has also been named for his first game of the season after overcoming multiple knee setbacks that had delayed his start to 2023.
