Adelaide midfielder Sid Draper will be available for selection this week after recovering from a fractured jaw.
Draper has not played since the Club’s SANFL clash against Sturt on May 9 when the 19-year-old was removed from the game after a nasty collision in the first quarter.
“We expect Sid to be available for the SANFL game against North Adelaide on Saturday,” Crows General Manager High Performance Ian McKeown said.
“He’s been participating in full training and has received clearance from the surgeon.”
Izak Rankine will be a test ahead of Thursday night’s match against the Western Bulldogs.
“Izak is presenting really well, however we won’t rush his return,” McKeown said.
Defender Mitch Hinge pulled up sore from Saturday’s game against South Adelaide in the SANFL and will be managed this weekend.
As confirmed last week, Isaac Cumming and Tyler Welsh will miss the next one to two and three to four weeks, respectively, with hamstring strains.
Likewise Callum Ah Chee (hamstring, 3-4 weeks) and Jordon Butts (calf, 2-3 weeks) have both been ruled out.
Adelaide's Round 14 injury list is:
