But the 20-year-old will miss Sunday's clash at Metricon Stadium due to illness.

The Suns welcome back Levi Casboult, while Sean Lemmens and Sam Flanders are in as Sam Day makes way, with Rosas and Lachie Weller (knee) out.

Despite their impressive form at VFL level, Jack Bowes and Elijah Hollands must wait to get their chance in the senior team.

Adelaide has brought back Josh Rachele and Jordon Butts, replacing Murphy and Mitchell Hinge (both omitted).

Murphy has kicked 1.9 in nine games for the Crows this year.
