Tom Lynch and Hugh Greenwood have been recalled for Adelaide’s clash with Melbourne in Darwin.
Lynch, who’s missed the past two games, has recovered from Viral Meningitis while Greenwood returns after being managed last week.
The pair replaces young wingman Wayne Milera Junior (calf) and veteran Scott Thompson (omitted).
Milera suffered a minor calf injury at training on Wednesday, but is hopeful of being available for selection next week. Paul Seedsman, Jono Beech and draftee Jordan Gallucci are the emergencies.
Greenwood, who has impressed since making his debut in Round Nine, will play his seventh AFL game.
Lynch pulled up well after completing Adelaide’s main training session.
Because of injury and illness, Lynch, Taylor Walker, Josh Jenkins and Mitch McGovern have only played in the same forward line once this season – a short period against Hawthorn in Round Two before Jenkins injured his ribs in the first quarter.
The Crows men’s team will play in Darwin for premiership points for the first time on Saturday night.
The forecast for game time is about 24 degrees and 60 per cent humidity.
