AFL Teams: Full Round 22 squads and the best SuperCoach advice
UPDATE: WESTERN Bulldogs axe All-Australian forward Jake Stringer while Geelong pull two players out of its clash against Brisbane. ALL ROUND 22 TEAMS
JAKE Stringer has paid for his form slump and will play VFL this weekend.
The Bulldogs’ All-Australian forward was on Friday axed from the team to face Essendon on Sunday and will instead turn out for Footscray.
Stringer has struggled in recent weeks after coming back from a shoulder injury sustained in Round 18.
The Dogs have also lost Matthew Suckling (Achilles) while recalling Toby McLean and rookie Roarke Smith.
Meanwhile, Geelong will rest star veteran Jimmy Bartel for Sunday’s clash against Brisbane at the Gabba.
Cats coach Chris Scott confirmed on Friday the utility won’t be making the trip to take on the Lions to prepare him for finals.
It is the second time in six weeks Bartel has been managed after missing the trip to Perth to play Fremantle in Round 17.
Scott confirmed Andrew Mackie will return for the clash after being managed last weekend but Josh Caddy is out, replaced by Darcy Lang.
Richmond has reacted savagely to its horror fade out against Geelong with Ty Vickery one of four players dropped.
Vickery, Anthony Miles, Nathan Drummond and Ben Lennon have all been axed.
The four inclusions are Connor Menadue, Kane Lambert, debutant Callum Moore and key position player Todd Elton, who has played two games since being recruited with pick 26 in the 2011 draft.
The Saints have selected US import Jason Holmes to replace injured ruckman Tom Hickey.
Meanwhile, North Melbourne regained injured big men Ben Brown and Scott Thompson, with Robin Nahas and Ryan Clarke making way.
The Swans have named Kurt Tippett and Ben McGlynn, with Keiren Jack out after hurting his ankle at training.
The Eagles have recalled Lewis Jetta and Hawthorn has named an unchanged line-up for their Friday night showdown in Perth.
In other team news, Adelaide regains No.1 ruckman Sam Jacobs for the Showdown, and Collingwood has overlooked Travis Cloke after five goals in the VFL last week.
