Geelong
On the Chopping Block: Shannon Neale
New injuries: Tom Stewart (concussion)
Facing fitness test: None
Potential ins: Rhys Stanley, Jed Bews, Ollie Henry
The Cats team selection will revolve around replacing Tom Stewart, who misses the grand final with concussion.
Will Mark Blicavs take Stewart's defensive spot, which would see Rhys Stanley promoted to the team as no.1 ruck?
Or could Chris Scott opt to use Jed Bews as a straight swap for Stewart?
Shannon Neale has struggled in finals and normally would have Ollie Henry breathing down his neck at selection.
But it's hard to see such a significant change being made to the team before the season decider.
Brisbane
On the Chopping Block: Bruce Reville
New injuries: None
Facing fitness test: Lachie Neale (calf), Jarrod Berry (shoulder)
Potential ins: James Tunstill
Will Neale and Berry be passed fit for the 'big dance'?
If both are ready to go, Bruce Reville will likely be squeezed out of the side as an omission.
It's hard to see any other changes for the Lions,
If both Neale and Berry both don't get up, then James Tunstill will likely come in,
It seems like the Lions are set on going in with two rucks - Darcy Fort and Oscar McInerney - meaning Sam Day will stay out of the team.
