The Lions have recalled big names Harris Andrews and Mitch Robinson for Saturday’s Qualifying Final against Melbourne at the Adelaide Oval.
Andrews watched-on as the Lions clinched a top four spot with a 38-point Rd 23 victory over West Coast last Saturday due to a tight hamstring.
Robinson has missed the past two matches with a calf strain.
Defender Ryan Lester and utility Cal Ah Chee have both been ruled out with injury.
Lester took a minor hamstring issue out of the thrilling victory over the Eagles at the Gabba.
Ah Chee aggravated his groin at training during the week and was sent for scans late on Thursday.
Lions High Performance Manager Damien Austin said both players were close to being available and he expected they would be available to push for selection for the Lions’ next game.
“Ryan just had some hamstring awareness coming out of the game which didn’t settle as well as we would have liked,’’ he said.
“Cal’s groin was a bit sore after training, we’re getting that looked at, but we expect it to be minor.’’
