ADAM Cooney's career is officially over after he was left out of Essendon's team to face Carlton on Saturday afternoon at the MCG.

The 2008 Brownlow medallist lined up in his 250th and final match last week against his former team, the Western Bulldogs.

Nick Kommer, Courtenay Dempsey and Shaun McKernan were all named for the Bombers in what could be their final AFL game, with all three out-of-contract at the end of the season.

Top-up ruckman Mark Jamar's career is almost certainly over after he was omitted from the Bombers' side.

Collingwood forward Travis Cloke was selected as a replacement for Darcy Moore (hamstring). Cloke is signed on for 2017 but speculation is rife he will seek a trade after being dropped three times this season.

His teammate Brent Macaffer was named in the squad, in what would be his final match before retirement. However, Alan Toovey won't play again after he was left out.

Retiring defender Ted Richards was also left out of the Swans' side to face Richmond and appears unlikely to get back into the team for finals unless there is an injury.

Brisbane Lions defender Daniel Merrett's last game will be versus St Kilda on Sunday afternoon at Etihad Stadium. Ruckman Trent West was named on the extended bench, after he played a farewell game in the NEAFL last week.
