MINOR premier Adelaide has made four changes to its side ahead of its preliminary final clash against Fremantle.

The Crows had made significant changes to their round 10 side – the last time they played – and a number of those players have returned.

Montana McKinnon, Brooke Tonon, Hannah Munyard and Maddy Newman have all been recalled, while McKenzie Dowrick, Jasmyn Hewett and Zoe Prowse have been omitted, with Eloise Jones to miss through suspension.

Fremantle has made one change, with livewire small Makaela Tuhakaraina returning after AFL health and safety protocols, replacing ruck/key forward Sarah Wielstra (ankle).

Draftee Tahlia Gillard is the unlucky story at Melbourne, making way for Eden Zanker, who is returning from a quad injury despite a scare at training earlier this week.

Opponent Brisbane has also made one change, regaining tall defender Indy Tahau from illness, with last week's debutant Maggie Harmer omitted.

Check out all the teams below.
