ADELAIDE has made four changes ahead of its match against Gold Coast, losing Eloise Jones (shoulder) and Hannah Munyard (calf) to injury, as well as omitting Caitlin Gould and Jess Sedunary.

The Crows have welcomed back Rachelle Martin (shins), ruck Rhi Metcalfe (managed), Ailish Considine (concussion) and Deni Varnhagan (quad), with the latter playing her first game for the season.

Opponents Gold Coast have welcomed plenty of experience back in the form of co-captain Sam Virgo (managed) and Leah Kaslar (ankle), but have lost firepower in the form of Sarah Perkins (MCL) and Maddy Levi (hyperextended knee).

GWS has swung the axe, omitting experienced duo Bec Privitelli and Lou Stephenson, with draftee Tarni Evans also dropped for Saturday's game in Canberra.

Lisa Steane and Aimee Schmidt have been given another opportunity, while key back Libby Graham will make her debut.

By comparison, Brisbane is unchanged after knocking off the undefeated Fremantle on the Dockers' home deck.

St Kilda has added speed on the back of its 53-point loss to Adelaide, with Nat Exon (groin) and Kate McCarthy (concussion) returning.

Renee Saulitis has been omitted, while Jacqui Vogt misses with a broken finger.

Fresh off a five-goal haul in the VFLW, Brenna Tarrant returns to Melbourne's line-up in place of Niamh McEvoy.

Sinead Goldrick is out with an injury, and will be replaced by fellow Irishwoman Lauren Magee.
