The Brisbane Lions have made two changes to the team to take on Adelaide this Saturday night at the Gabba.

Matt Maguire has been named after recovering from an ankle injury, while Jack Crisp will also come back into the side this week for his ninth game this season.

Maguire injured his ankle in Round 18 against West Coast, and has narrowly missed playing the past two matches.

He is likely to combine with fellow backman Daniel Merrett to take on the Crows’ big forward duo of Kurt Tippett and Taylor Walker.

Meanwhile, Crisp will no doubt be refreshed after sitting out last week’s match against Carlton - a weekend where the Lions Reserves also had a scheduled Bye.

Maguire and Crisp have been included in the side in place of Todd Banfield and Stephen Wrigley, who have been omitted.
