Ruby Svarc returns to the forward line after successfully completing AFLW concussion protocols.

Youngster Marlo Graham will also return via the interchange bench after completing concussion protocols, joining Rania Crozier, Claudia Wright and Sophie Peters. 

Eleanor Hartill who missed last week's game with a foot injury has also been selected on the interchange. 

Evie Long, Lily Rose Williamson, and Asher Fearn-Wannan have been named as the emergencies. 

Saturday afternoon's clash between the Lions and the West Coast Eagles gets underway at 2:35pm AWST/ 4:35pm AEST at Mineral Resources Park.
