Round 17 Teams

Geelong have ruled out a return from Brownlow Medal favorite Gary Ablett in Friday nights long awaited blockbuster against Hawthorn at a sold out MCG. Joining Ablett on the sidelines yet again is David Wojcinski (Achilles tendon injury) and Cameron Ling with a fractured cheekbone. Meanwhile Hawthorn’s Luke Hodge may be a late withdrawal from the match who has publicly stated he will attend the birth of his birth born child if the two conflict. The Swans PR stunt is over, Barry Hall will line up against Adelaide this week who have also recalled Jason Porplyzia who dislocated his shoulder in round 15.
