Ben Jensen 18 May 2007

By Ben Jensen SEVERAL BIG NAMES return this week. Essendon Captain Matthew Lloyd has been named for Essendon's clash with Brisbane Lions. 'Max' Rooke has shaken off a persistent hamstring injury to be named for his first match of the season with Geelong. Dean 'Big' Cox was named on an extended interchange bench for West Coast.

Dean Solomon returns from suspension for Fremantle. Joel Smith returns to Hawthorns backline. Collingwood's Leon Davis should return from a disciplinary suspension while defender Shane Wakelin has been dropped in a sign his career may be at an end.
