    THE injury-hit Western Bulldogs face a rampaging Fremantle at Marvel Stadium before the Showdown between Adelaide and Port Adelaide in a huge Friday night double-header.

    The Bulldogs' concerns went from bad to worse as they were kept at arm's length by Sydney before the ladder leaders pulled away in the second half. The Bulldogs have now lost their past three by an average 60 points at the same time as their injury toll continues to mount. The Dogs will need no reminder of their costly loss to the Dockers last year as they look to turn their form around.

    Final teams in for Lions v Crows at the Gabba. LIVE from 3.15pm AEST

    ST KILDA gets a chance for a much-needed win when it welcomes West Coast to Marvel Stadium on Sunday.

    The Saints (2-4) are perhaps the hardest side in the competition to nail down as a pair of spirited defeats to Brisbane and most recently Adelaide sit alongside less than convincing victories over Greater Western Sydney and Port Adelaide in the past month. 

    Signs of improvement are shining through, but the Saints need to make hay while facing the Eagles, Blues and Tigers over the next four weeks.

    Veteran defender Dougal Howard has been recalled for his second senior match this year, with the versatile Anthony Caminiti joining him, the pair replacing Hugh Boxshall (omitted) and Liam Stocker (injured).

    AFL Team Selection: Round Seven v Brisbane

    Adelaide has made two changes for its ANZAC Appeal Round match against Brisbane at the Gabba on Sunday afternoon.

    Captain Jordan Dawson will return to the team, while ruck/forward Toby Murray has also been named.

    “It is great to have Jordan back, he is such an inspiration to us all, on and off the field," Executive General Manager Football Adam Kelly said.

    “What he and his family are enduring is so tragic, and we hope that being around his mates out on the field provides some respite.  

    “He gives so much of himself to the team and the Club, and now is a time that we give back to him and his family by way of love and support."

    In the gun: Can explosive Lion have 'the game'?

    David King has put one of the reigning premiers’ star players in the gun ahead of the Lions’ clash with Adelaide.

    A huge game between two finals contenders, both sides have faced stuttered starts to the AFL season, winning just three of their first six games to sit on the outer of the 10.

    Brisbane – entering off the back of a surprising two-point loss to Melbourne – play hosts in a hugely important game, and King has his sights set on the club’s barometer.

    “It hurts me to put one of our own in the gun,” King told SEN Fireball.

    “I think Cam Rayner needs a game. I think Cam needs a game.

    Burning questions as Barossa bound Tigers battle Giants

    The AFL world has descended on Adelaide for the annual Gather Round, with Richmond scheduled to face the GWS Giants in the Barossa Valley on Sunday afternoon.

    As the Tigers search for their first win of the season, here are some burning questions which could determine the result of the game.

    As discussed on Talking Tigers this week, GWS ranks number one in the AFL for disposals and number three for handballs, while they also use the corridor the second most in the league coming out of defensive 50.

    F1 teams predict new car designs will cause 'chaos' in Melbourne

    Formula 1 is back for 2026, and the cars are all sporting new looks.

    But it won't be just a fresh coat of paint on show at the Melbourne Grand Prix.

    Former Renault engineer Chris Papadopoulos says this year features one of the biggest regulation changes since the sport's inception.

    "Tyres, aerodynamics, vehicle dimension and engine rules … so basically, just about everything on the car is changing," he says.

    The cars will be louder, slower on the corners and harder to handle, but more sustainable for the planet than previous designs.

    ‘Shock for everyone’: Why Melbourne will be the hardest test of F1’s new era

    Melbourne will bear witness to what’s being billed as the most significant change in Formula 1 history.

    Forget everything you thought you knew about how Formula 1 works — about last year’s form guide, about those stubborn car traits that came to define the competitiveness of each team.

    Predicted teams: Desperate Rabbitohs ask NRL for exemption amid crisis as Lomax case lingers over blockbuster

    South Sydney is desperate for the NRL to sign off an exemption for talented youngster Ashton Ward to play in round one as the club faces a halfback crisis.

    Meanwhile a legal dispute between Melbourne and Parramatta has left gun centre-winger Zac Lomax in limbo days out from the two clubs clashing on the field.

    Here are the predicted teams for the rest of round one, after the Knights, Cowboys, Bulldogs and Dragons kicked the season off in Las Vegas.

    South Sydney will apply for an NRL exemption for rising halfback Ashton Ward to play in round one amid an early play making shortage, before sitting down for extension talks with one of the pre-season’s most impressive youngsters.

    As a revitalised Cody Walker spoke on Friday of “feeling like a burden” to his teammates throughout two years of repeated soft-tissue injuries, the Rabbitohs will weather all-too familiar upheaval to start 2026.

    South Sydney might need exemption to break NRL rule amid suspension and injury dramas

    The South Sydney Rabbitohs are reportedly considering applying for an exemption from the NRL for young halfback Ashton Ward to potentially play in Round 1, amid suspension and injury dramas for Wayne Bennett's side. With first-choice halfback Jamie Humphreys suspended until Round 3 for a hip-drop tackle last season, it was expected that Jonah Glover would be in the No.7 jersey.

    But Glover broke his jaw in the Charity Shield against the Dragons, and will be out for an extended period. The Rabbitohs also have Jayden Sullivan, but he's battling an infection and might not be available for Round 1 either.

    That means Ward is next in line, and the 22-year-old played well against the Dragons and Manly in the pre-season. But there's a major stumbling block that would prevent the Bunnies from picking Ward against the Dolphins in their season opener.
