Captain Chelsea Randall will be sidelined for three to five weeks after suffering a high-grade ankle sprain in the final quarter of the Crows game against Brisbane at Metricon Stadium on Friday night.

Head of Women’s Football Phil Harper was hopeful Randall would be fit for the upcoming finals series.

"Scans have shown that Chelsea suffered a high-grade ankle sprain after landing awkwardly from a marking contest," Harper said.

"Chelsea will be pushing hard to be fit to play for finals and we will do all we can to support her in her rehabilitation."
