FREMANTLE has dropped winger Nathan O'Driscoll for its semi-final clash with an unchanged Geelong, while Adelaide has axed Isaac Cumming for its trip to face reigning premier Brisbane. 

And the Lions have recalled tall defender Ty Gallop, who made way for star midfielder Hugh McCluggage's return in the qualifying final against Sydney.

O'Driscoll had 18 touches in the Dockers' surprise loss to Hawthorn in the qualifying final but he will be replaced by experienced utility Corey Wagner against the Cats. Former Melbourne defender Judd McVee also comes in for injured defender Brandon Walker (ankle). 

The Cats have opted not to recall tall defender Sam De Koning to combat Fremantle's key forwards, sticking with the team that defeated Carlton by 33 points in the elimination final.

Cumming, a leadership group member at the Crows, makes way for Zac Taylor who has recovered from a hamstring injury for the do-or-die final against the Lions. 

And Gallop comes back into Brisbane's squad in place of fellow defender Noah Answerth, whose ankle injury prevented him from training on Thursday.
