Shaun McKernan, pulled out of the SANFL late last week to be an emergency for the Crows, is back with South Adelaide for its game against Central District at Noarlunga on Saturday.

Rookie ruckman Ben Dowdell was also named in South’s squad of 23 and Brad Symes will be in the midfield for the Bulldogs.

West Adelaide, buoyant after a big away win against Central, will have Brad Crouch and Rory Laird for the clash with ladder leader Norwood on Saturday at Richmond.

Mitch Grigg will be Norwood’s lone Crow this weekend after Luke Brown was recalled to Adelaide’s 22.

The Eagles lost Chris Knights to the Crows but have Luke Thompson in defence for their home game against Port Adelaide on Saturday.

Sturt may have five Crows for its home game against Glenelg. Tim McIntyre, Sam Kerridge and Matt Jaensch will play at Unley while Aidan Riley and Richard Tambling may be available if not taken to Brisbane as Crows emergencies.

Jarryd Lyons and Tom Lynch will be key players for Glenelg. North Adelaide has the bye.

Dylan Orval (Central), Cam Ellis-Yolmen and Nick Joyce (Eagles) are in the reserves.
