JOSH GREEN will return from injury for the Lions when they clash with Adelaide on Saturday at Adelaide Oval.
Green, the team’s leading goal kicker in 2015, hasn’t played since the Round 14 loss to Fremantle in Perth.
An MRI following the match confirmed a stress fracture in his foot. Fortunately, it did not require surgery.
The 22-year old got through main training yesterday and will return to face the Crows.
Vice-Captain Daniel Rich will miss, sidelined with a glute injury.
Rohan Bewick, Josh Watts and Hugh Beasley have been listed as emergencies.
The team will fly to Adelaide tomorrow.
