WEST

West Adelaide is poised to give a former Panther his club debut against Central on Saturday.

Nippy midfielder Connor Fairlie (22, 174cm and 72kg) has been named to start in the centre square after crossing over to play with his brother Patrick Fairlie in the first half of the season.

Connor Fairlie, who played 12 League games for South, has been joined in West’s 23-man squad by Kyle Kirk, Conor Noonan and key defender Josh Ryan, who has been listed at full back.

Former Redleg Lyndon Hupfeld will miss a fortnight with a hamstring strain while Jack Evans will be sidelined for the rest of the season with a knee injury.

GLENELG

Glenelg has named a talented pair of forwards for its top-of-the-table clash with Adelaide on Saturday.

Former Geelong goalsneak Cory Gregson, who was a late withdrawal in Round 14, and hard-working spearhead Josh Scott have been named in the Tigers’ 23-man squad.

ADELAIDE

Adelaide has been boosted by the presence of star veteran Eddie Betts for its clash with Glenelg on Saturday.

Betts has been joined in the 23-man squad by Hugh Greenwood who was also sent back from AFL duty.

Emerging midfielder Myles Poholke has recovered from a calf injury to start inside the centre square.
