A promising ruckman, O’Brien was elevated from Adelaide’s rookie list last week and named as an emergency for the game against Geelong.

Second-year midfielder Wigg, who was the Club’s best in the SANFL loss to Woodville-West Torrens last weekend, has been an emergency several times. Milera will be hoping for a recall following an impressive start to his debut AFL season.

Taylor Walker (ankle) and half-back Ricky Henderson (Achilles) are the confirmed omissions.

Walker and Henderson pulled up sore after Saturday night’s loss to Geelong. The Club is optimistic both players will only miss one match. Defender Daniel Talia has recovered from a corked hip and will take his place in the team.

Tickets for the twilight clash are still available, including reserved seats, general admission and guest passes. Kids under 15 get in for free with the purchase of any other general admission ticket as part of the Club’s ‘Sunday Funday’ celebrations.

The game starts at 4:10pm with gates opening at 1:15pm (local time). Get to Adelaide Oval early to watch the SA country team take on WA from 1.20pm.
