Every club's changes for Round 3: who comes in, who is out and why, with the injury and expected return from the injury list. Long-term absences are on the injury list and suspensions on the tribunal page.
From the team sheets in the AFL's match centre; the reasons are the AFL's, and injuries are matched to the injury list. Refreshed every few minutes in the days before a game.
40 players come in and 40 go out across 7 games with both teams named, 21 of the outs through injury. Essendon made the most changes (6 in, 6 out).

Clubs name their teams in the days before each game and can still make late changes before the bounce. Each card here says whether its team is the one first named or the final team on the AFL's team sheet.
