WEST

West Adelaide has recalled a strong-leading forward for its final match of the year against Norwood on Friday night.

Former Redleg Lyndon Hupfeld has been elevated from the Reserves after booting three goals against the Tigers in Round 17.

Emerging defender Keelan Laube has also been included in the Bloods’ 23-man squad as one of five players on the extended interchange bench.

Premiership midfielder Kaine Stevens has been named after missing most of the League clash against Glenelg after an accidental poke in the eye in the second term.

Ruckman Peter Ladhams returns to the Magpies while defender Tom Corcoran has been listed at half-back.

SANFL contracted pair Sam Davidson and Jack Elsworthy have been named on the interchange bench.

Rigney has been joined in the line-up by utility Jared Deep, who will start on the interchange bench.

SOUTH

South Adelaide has added running power to its squad to confront Adelaide on Saturday.

Wingman Mark Noble and utility Nic Schwarz have been added to the Panthers’ 23-man squad.

Both have been named on the five-man extended interchange bench, with Noble racking up 29 disposals, 10 marks and a goal in the Reserves in Round 17.

Schwarz has overcome a broken hand which has sidelined him since Round 13.

It will be the last match at Noarlunga for retiring club stalwarts Brad Crabb and Nick Liddle.

Three replacement candidates have been included in the Double Blues’ 23-man squad, including small forward Jack Penfold, athletic spearhead Mihail Lochowiak and utility Joel Thiele.

GLENELG

Glenelg will be without an emerging utility for at least a year ahead of its final minor round game against Sturt on Saturday.

Former West Adelaide player Tom Schott has ruptured his ACL and will require a full knee reconstruction, effictively sidelining him for the 2020 season.

Schott left the field during the third term against West after copping an accidental kick to his knee inside the centre square.

Ken Farmer Medal leader Liam McBean is out with general soreness, leaving the door ajar for team-mate Luke Reynolds to eclipse his tally of 46 goals for the season, with Reynolds on 43.

Wingman Carl Nicholson will play his first League game since suffering an Achilles strain in Round 6 while star forward Josh Scott could make his return from a broken arm after last appearing in Round 11.

Youngsters Josh Koster and Seb Kerrish have also been added to the five-man extended interchange bench.
