ADELAIDE has an influx of players returning from injury this weekend, with Charlie Cameron, Ricky Henderson, Andy Otten and Riley Knight to play for the first time this year.

Cameron, 21, and Knight, 20, returned to main training last week.

Cameron had minor knee surgery in February, while Knight had an operation earlier that month after damaging ligaments in his ankle at training.

Cameron kicked 29 goals from his 22 games last year.

Henderson (back) and Otten (knee) both struggled with the injuries in 2015, and went under the knife last December.

Henderson missed four games with the back injury last year, but has had a bulging disc removed.

Otten returned to football in the second half of the season after his second ACL reconstruction.

He was named as emergency for Adelaide's two finals, but didn't play a senior game in 2015.

Brett Burton told the club website Curtley Hampton is likely to be out for six weeks, rather than the eight that was initially forecast.

Mature-aged rookie ruckman Paul Hunter rolled his ankle at training on Monday morning and won't play this week.
