2008 draftee Wright played the opening four games of the season, but was dropped after the loss to the Sydney Swans in round 4.
The 19 year-old would be desperate to get back on the field having not played last week as the travelling emergency in Tasmania.
Ben Ross has been overlooked for another week despite picking up 27 possessions for the Werribee Tigers in the VFL.
It’s the same for Daniel Pratt who continues to increase his match fitness every week with North Ballarat. The number 30 played 94% of the game for the Roosters against Casey and looks in line for a recall in the coming weeks.
Quieter performances from Cruize Garlett and Leigh Harding mean they'll have to spend another week at VFL level, while Robbie Tarrant continues to await a debut.
