R11 - Norwood v Adelaide @ Coopers
![Post Post](./styles/SAFOOTYv2/imageset/icon_post_target.png)
NORWOOD
Norwood co-captain Jace Bode will make his long-awaited return against Adelaide at Coopers Stadium on Sunday.
Sidelined by a serious ankle injury suffered against Glenelg in Round 4, Bode has been injected straight back into League action after being named at half-back.
The left-footer has been joined by goalsneak Josh Donohue, who has overcome his latest calf strain.
Donohue will effectively replace fellow small forward Simon Phillips, who will miss up to a month with an ankle ailment.
Triple premiership defender Ben Jefferies was unable to recover from a hamstring strain he reported during the match against the Eagles last Saturday.
Former Glenelg ruckman Josh Miller is in line to play his first IGA League match for the Redlegs after being named in the forward pocket.
Dylan Auciello, who has played just one League match in Round 12 last year, has been named on the extended interchange bench.
Swingman Michael Chippendale, who underwent a scan on his knee earlier in the week, will play his 50th IGA League match should he take his place against the Crows.
