ADELAIDE has dropped premiership ruck Rhiannon Metcalfe for its clash against Melbourne, one of four changes made by the Crows.

Eloise Jones (shoulder) is back after one week on the sidelines, with the mobile Caitlin Gould given an opportunity to tackle the equally agile Lauren Pearce in Metcalfe's stead.

Chelsea Biddle has been recalled from the SANFLW and Hannah Munyard (calf) is back on deck, with Ailish Considine (omitted), Nikki Gore (ankle) and Hannah Button (shoulder) out.

By contrast, the Demons have made just the one change, omitting Chantel Emonson for Sinead Goldrick, who missed last week with hamstring tightness.

The revolving door at GWS has continued, with talls Bec Privitelli, Lou Stephenson and Tarni Evans recalled after a week on the sidelines.

Jodie Hicks is in for her first game since round two, while Nicola Barr (finger), Aimee Schmidt (ankle), Taylah Davies and Lisa Steane (dropped) make way.

The Giants will be coming up against St Kilda, who have made four changes of their own.

Molly McDonald (quad) and Jacqui Vogt (broken pinkie) come back into the side, as does father-daughter signing Alice Burke and ruck Poppy Kelly for her first game this season.

The speedy Nat Exon is out with a shoulder knock, while three players – Nadia von Bertouch, Claudia Whitfort and Ali Brown – have been omitted.

The Western Bulldogs have recalled two young midfielders in their quest to tackle the might of North Melbourne, with Gemma Lagioia and Britney Gutknecht recalled after several weeks in the VFLW.

Ruck Kim Rennie has failed to recover from her ankle complaint in time, while Bailey Hunt has been dropped.

North Melbourne ruck Vivien Saad will return from her one-match suspension in place of last week's debutant Georgia Hammond.
