Adelaide has made two changes for Saturday night’s Sir Doug Nicholls Indigenous Round clash with Fremantle.
Forward Josh Jenkins and wingman David Mackay have been recalled, replacing the injured Curtly Hampton (ankle) and Jordan Gallucci, who has been omitted.
Jenkins and Mackay return after being left out of the team that beat the Brisbane Lions last weekend.
Rebounding defender Brodie Smith, who suffered hamstring tightness in the win over Brisbane, has also been selected in the team.
Gallucci, forward Jono Beech and ruckman Reilly O’Brien are the emergencies.
The Crows will take on the in-form Dockers, who have won six of their last seven games, at 7:10pm.
