Crows coach Don Pyke hopes Kyle Cheney and Luke Brown will be fit to play in Saturday night's Elimination Final against North Melbourne at Adelaide Oval.

Cheney has been managing a leg injury while the nature of Brown's issue has been kept under wraps.

Pyke told reporters on Wednesday a decision would be made on both players, along with wingman Paul Seedsman, after Thursday's training session.

"He (Cheney) is going to have to train tomorrow," Pyke said.

"Seedsman is another one who needs to train.

"We'll weigh all that up after the training session making sure we have a fit squad going into Saturday night."

Asked about Brown coming off the ground a couple times during the 29-point loss to West Coast in Round 23, Pyke said, "He's been a little bit sore, so he's one we've managed through the last two weeks.

"Again, we're really hopeful he's going to be fine."

The cloud over Cheney, Brown and Seedsman is offset by the return of star midfielder Rory Sloane (suspension) and rebounding defender Brodie Smith (concussion).

Pyke was hopeful he wouldn't have to make mass changes to the side.

"We've obviously got those two guys coming back in, so there's a couple of changes you can imagine straight away," Pyke said.

"At this time of year some guys are naturally carrying some niggles.

"Some of those things you can play with, some of those things might be an issue.

"We'll assess all that and make a decision on full facts."

Make the most of chance: VB

Seedsman has missed the past month with a corked buttock and is highly unlikely to come straight back into the side.

Cheney, 27, has played every game this year while Brown, 23, has missed only two matches.

The Crows are aiming to be the first club under the existing finals format to win the premiership from fifth on the ladder.

Captain Taylor Walker said there was a strong desire to perform strongly in the finals and he believed they were capable of winning three games on the road to take out the flag.

"We're very hungry," Walker said.

"The way I look at it, the Adelaide Football Club belong in finals.

"We've earnt our right to be here, we've won 16 games, you just don't fall into finals.

"So I've got full belief and confidence that our footy will stand up in finals and I guarantee you I'll be running out with 21 hungry players."
