Team: Debutant added for Roos clash
Adelaide will unveil its ninth debutant of 2020 this Saturday
Adelaide will unveil its ninth debutant of 2020 this Saturday with Montana McKinnon set to make her first appearance in the tricolours.
The addition of the Crows’ first pick in the 2019 AFLW draft is one of three changes to the side ahead of its clash with North Melbourne.
McKinnon arrived at West Lakes with an impressive list of football accolades despite being just 18 years of age.
The two-time All-Australian at Under-18 level also captained the Central Allies at the 2019 NAB AFLW Under-18 Championships, where she was named MVP for the Allies. The 183cm ruck is also a dual-premiership player with South Adelaide and was named as starting ruck in the 2019 SANFLW Team of the Year. Fellow draftees Caitlin Gould and Madison Newman return to the side after ruck Jessica Foley and forward Eloise Jones were ruled out with injury. The Crows will take on the Roos at North Hobart Oval from 3.10pm ACDT on Saturday afternoon. Channel 7 Adelaide will broadcast the game live from 2.30pm. Adelaide’s Round Five team is… IN - Gould, McKinnon, Newman OUT - Biddell (omitted), J. Foley (foot), Jones (AC joint)
