OAKLEIGH CHARGERS<\/b><\/p>\n Round 13 – Sunday, July 29, 1pm Geelong Falcons return to Colac this weekend and are hosting Oakleigh Chargers, with both sides taking a very different approach to team selection. AFL Academy member, Ed McHenry<\/strong> is the only out for the Falcons, while Jack Grigsby<\/strong> and Keidan Rayner<\/strong> are the two confirmed ins. Oakleigh have unsurprisingly been hit hard by the return of school football with Vic Metro players James Rowbottom<\/strong>, Will Kelly<\/strong> and Joe Ayton-Delaney<\/strong> among a whopping 11 confirmed outs. There is some good news for the Chargers, with AFL Academy defender, Isaac Quaynor<\/strong> returning to the team and has been named on a wing. The likes of Bailey Wraith<\/strong> and Daniel Scala<\/strong> are also among the 14 inclusions.<\/p>\n Geelong Falcons<\/strong><\/p>\n B: 31. C. Cartledge, 49. D. Hollenkamp, 21. L. Smith In: J.

BENDIGO PIONEERS<\/b><\/p>\n Round 13 – Sunday, July 29, 2.30pm In the final game of the round, Sandringham Dragons have just made the casual 17 changes for the Dragons’ clash with Bendigo Pioneers. A massive 20 players have been included in a side which is almost a completely different side to the one that fronted up against Geelong Falcons in Round 12. With school football returning, the likes of Alastair Richards<\/strong>, Angus Hanrahan<\/strong>, Will Kennedy<\/strong>, Joe Griffiths<\/strong>, Harry Houlahan<\/strong> and Anthony Seaton <\/strong>will be missing from the side.\u00a0In their place, George Grey<\/strong>, Ryan O’Meara<\/strong>, Andrew Courtney<\/strong>, Jai Florent<\/strong>, Tyson Milne<\/strong> and Corey Watts<\/strong> are among the long list of inclusions.
