Geelong has made three changes to their side for their round three AFLW clash against Adelaide at GMHBA Stadium on Sunday.
Meghan McDonald and Maddie Boyd will play their first matches for 2020.
McDonald’s inclusion will be a big boost for the group having missed the opening two games of the season with a finger injury.
The reigning best and fairest winner will add some much-needed experience and class to a young Cats outfit who are still hunting their first win of the AFLW season.
Fellow defender Rebecca Goring rounds out the inclusions this week.
Denby Taylor will miss with an ankle injury, while Madisen Maguire and Georgie Rankin have been omitted.
Sunday’s match will kick off at 5.10pm.
It will be the Club’s 11th AFLW match and third game against the Adelaide Crows.
