The teams are in for another exciting weekend of AFL action. Premiership favourites Collingwood have been forced to make multiple changes for their Friday night blockbuster against Geelong. The biggest casualty is Nick Daicos, who is injured. Meanwhile, Melbourne has recalled out-of-favour tall Brodie Grundy for their huge clash against Carlton, who have not made any changes. Richmond’s superstar Dusty Martin and captain Dylan Grimes are also returning for the Tigers’ battle against St Kilda.
