ALL EYES are on Collingwood young gun Ash Centra's availability for round one after the midfielder was concussed in the club's match against the Western Bulldogs over the weekend. 

Centra entered protocols on Saturday, but information on her availability to play will be provided ahead of the match against Richmond on August 15, as she progresses through protocols. 

It's not the only potential blow to the Pies with Bri Davey's long-awaited return to footy put on hold for a few weeks, after the veteran sustained a minor foot injury during the Pies' practice match against West Coast. A timeline for her return is still to be confirmed.

Melbourne has the most extensive injury list heading into the season with 10, including star defender Maeve Chaplin (foot, 3-4 weeks) and Georgia Gall (concussion, TBC). Highly touted draftee Chloe Baker-West has been ruled out for the season as she recovers from a stress injury in her leg, with sights on her debut now moved to 2027. 

But in better news for the Dees, Eliza McNamara is looking likely for round one after she was sidelined during practice matches with a corked quad. 

Carlton recruit Lauren Bella will miss up to 5-6 weeks with a calf injury sustained doing pre-season, severely thinning out the Blues' ruck stocks, with Breann Harrington already on the inactive list due to pregnancy. 

The Saints go into this Sunday's double-header with close to a full bill of health, with Molly McDonald (foot, 4-6 weeks) the only addition to the list alongside Nicola Xenos (knee, inactive).
