Crows star Erin Phillips will return to the side to take on Collingwood in Sunday's Round Nine clash. 

Phillips missed last weekend's game after suffering a knee ligament strain during Adelaide's game against GWS. 

Glenelg product Brooke Tonon also returns to the team following her debut game in Round Seven. 

The Collingwood game marks a league milestone for two-time premiership player Ebony Marinoff, who will notch her 50th game for the Club. 

Senior Coach Matthew Clarke said the reigning AFLW Club Champion, inaugural Rising Star and three-time All Australian deserved every accolade that had come her way.

“She’s a trailblazer in the competition,” Clarke said.

“(She gives) unconditional effort, it doesn’t matter where in the season… she’s got one gear and it’s flat out.

“Knowing you’re going to get that regardless of the scenario is a nice place to start from and the other thing I have enjoyed is her thirst to get better."

Although the Magpies have some big names out, including co-captain Brianna Davey and Brittany Bonnici (ACL injuries), Clarke expected a tough battle.

“They’ve had to do without Bri since the start of the season and the Bonnici going down last week which was enormously disappointing for the competition,” Clarke said.

“But if you look at their form line in the past two weeks, they’ve really got themselves going again.

“The reality is that their best footy has been in the past fortnight and we are getting them on the upswing."

Adelaide will celebrate Indigenous culture against Collingwood in front of fans at Norwood Oval on Sunday, March 6, with the first bounce at 2.40pm.

The match, which is proudly sponsored by BHP, will include activities for families, as well as a special pre-match performance by Kuma Karru.
