THE WESTERN Bulldogs will be bolstered by the return of speedster Rylie Wilcox for its clash against Hawthorn on Sunday, while Carlton’s Phoebe McWilliams will play her first game in nearly a year.

McWilliams has been named to play in her 50th AFLW match after overcoming the calf injury that has kept her from playing since round four last year.

After being a late withdrawal from round one due to knee soreness, Kiara Bowers will return for the Dockers, while Darcy Guttridge has been recalled to the Saints' starting 21.

Gab Pound will also play her first game of the year, with Taylor Ortlepp dropped and Daisy Walker missing through a shoulder injury, while North Melbourne has named an unchanged line-up for its clash against the Blues.

The Magpies have named Emily Smith and Imogen Barnett for Sunday’s clash against Fremantle, with Eliza James out with an ankle injury and ruck Erica Fowler omitted. With Bowers coming into the Dockers' side, Makaela Tuhakaraina makes way.

The Bombers have named an unchanged line-up for Sunday’s clash against St Kilda, while Guttridge replaces Beth Pinchin in the Saints’ side. 

Young Hawthorn ruck Lucy Wales will return from a bone stress injury, with Emily Everist and Laura Elliott coming into the side at the expense of Tahlia Fellows and Sarah Perkins, with Tamara Smith missing through suspension.

Melbourne premiership player Maeve Chaplin will return from concussion protocols, replacing Megan Fitzimon who will miss through a back injury.
