GOLD Coast has made three changes from the side that lost to Brisbane by 69 points on Thursday evening.
Ellie Hampson has been managed on the short turnaround and the side’s first ever draft selection back in 2019, Serene Watson, will miss with a quad injury.
Cheyenne Hammond has been omitted and will miss just the third game of her career.
Strong running midfielder Lucy Single will return to the side, set to play her first game since round four, and Shannon Danckert has been named for the third game of her career.
Defender Wallis Randell also comes in for the first time this season, after five games last year.
Fresh off a win against Geelong on Friday night, the Western Bulldogs have made one change, with Gemma Lagioia coming into the side with Elizabeth Snell to miss through the League's health and safety protocols.
