NORWOOD
Norwood will be without its skipper for the encounter against Adelaide at The Parade.
Midfielder Matthew Nunn hurt his hamstring during the first term of the West End State Game on Saturday, ensuring he would be sidelined for the Redlegs.
Dual Magarey Medallist Mitch Grigg is among his potential replacements, with Zac Richards, Paul Puopolo, Finn Heard and Mac Bower also added to the extended interchange bench.
Nick Pedro (concussion) and Mitch Wilkins (back) were both deemed unfit to play.
