Adelaide: form and team news
The Adelaide Crows are gearing up for their first finals appearance since 2017 after finishing the regular season at the top of the ladder. Despite their strong performance, their finals campaign encountered a setback with a hard-fought home loss to Collingwood in last weekend’s qualifying final. Senior Coach Matthew Nicks has confirmed that forward Josh Rachele will return for Friday night’s semi-final clash against Hawthorn. Rachele has been out of action since Round 17 due to a posterior capsular tear in his knee sustained during a match against Melbourne. Meanwhile, Hugh Bond has been omitted from the lineup. Lachlan Murphy, Jordan Butts, and Billy Dowling have been listed as emergencies.

Out: H.Bond (omitted)
Hawthorn: form and team news
Hawthorn finished in an impressive eighth-place finish and followed it up with a remarkable victory over the GWS Giants in the Elimination Final. The Hawks will be determined to seek redemption after last year’s semi-final defeat to Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. For their crucial semi-final showdown against the Adelaide Crows this Friday night, Hawthorn has recalled key forward Mitch Lewis to bolster their lineup. Unfortunately, Calsher Dear will miss the match due to a hamstring injury, though he remains in contention to return later in the season.
