MO Hope has been confirmed as an inclusion for Collingwood’s Sunday clash against GWS.

The forward was dropped for last weekend’s loss to Fremantle but was last night named on the extended bench. She retained her spot when the squad was trimmed today.

Magpies teammate Meg Hutchins will make her first appearance for AFLW02, having spent the summer training as a forward.

Erin Phillips, meanwhile, has to pass a fitness test at Adelaide training tonight before her place in the Crows’ side that will face the Western Bulldogs is confirmed.

Carlton forward Tayla Harris has overcome a shoulder complaint and will face her former side on Saturday night.

Harris had scans this week after injuring her left shoulder against Greater Western Sydney last week but has fully recovered to take on the Lions.

“It’ll be great to have her and it’s always fun to play against your former club,” Blues teammate Alison Downie said.

Phillips, 32, has missed the reigning premiers’ first two rounds after suffering a quad injury.

She will be assessed before tomorrow’s afternoon clash with the Dogs at Norwood Oval, with the club saying she “will be given every chance to play”.

Former Adelaide United captain Marijana Rajcic will make her debut, alongside fellow ex-Reds teammates Jenna McCormick and Ruth Wallace.

“I’m super excited to get out there with Jenna and Ruthie again and take the same field,” Rajcic said.

Erin Phillips has been named by Adelaide.

“Back then, I loved soccer and had always played soccer, and Ruthie and Jenna did too.

“I never would’ve thought this would happen, that we’d end up playing AFLW in the same team.”

Brooke Patterson and Harriet Cordner have been added to Melbourne’s squad for Sunday’s trip to Fremantle.

Bella Ayre will make her Brisbane debut against her former side when the Lions face Carlton, while the Western Bulldogs have named Jess Anderson to make her debut against Adelaide in place of injured star Isabel Huntington.

Carlton vice-captain Lauren Arnell remains out of the team after her omission before Round 2.
