…...…..WAFL star
Josh Deluca arrived at Princes Park with a hamstring injury, but the No. 1 pick will play his first game for the Northern Blues on Saturday.
Melbourne recruit
Kyle Dunkley — the brother of Western Bulldogs emerging star Josh — is on track to earn an opportunity at the highest level in the second half of the season.
Former college basketballer
Michael Knoll could feature for Sydney in the coming months.
The 205cm, 103kg ruckman has already been named as an emergency and after amassing 39 hit-outs and 13 touches in the NEAFL last weekend, Knoll could be called on if Callum Sinclair is injured.
North Melbourne recruit
Lachlan Hosie was plucked out of the SANFL at Pick 5 after kicking 21 goals from eight games to start the year.
The 22-year-old has kicked 6.6 in three VFL games and could get a look in under Rhyce Shaw before the year is out.
