Youngsters Jess Doyle and Meghan Gaffney will return to the team as the GIANTS look to make it back-to-back wins at Henson Park.

Doyle was omitted from last week’s team, while Gaffney returns to the side for her fourth game of the season.

Scans this week have confirmed an ACL rupture for Emily Pease, with the round six rising star set to miss the remainder of the season.

GIANTS Coach Cam Bernasconi said:

“It’s really disappointing news for Emily, who hurt her knee at training this week.

“She’s been having a wonderful season and we’re going to miss having her out there for the rest of this year.

“We’ll support Em in every way and we know this is just a minor setback in what will be a long and successful AFLW career.”

Pease will see a surgeon on Monday and begin her rehabilitation.

Haneen Zreika will miss this weekend’s match due to personal reasons but will be available for selection next week.

The GIANTS take on Hawthorn this Sunday at Henson Park, with the match beginning at 3:10pm.
