Three players set to be tested ahead of Round 4 in the West.

Yartapuulti’s Lauren Young will be assessed ahead of the team’s Round 4 clash with Waalitj Marawar. 

The talented tall has spent an extended period on the sidelines recovering from an ACL injury and is now on track to make her AFLW debut.

Young could line up alongside draftee Jasmine Evans, who is available for selection this week after returning to full training following a period of managing shin soreness.

Defender Cheyenne Hammond will also be assessed in the lead-up to Sunday’s game against the Eagles, having recovered from a foot injury sustained during the pre-season.

Meanwhile, midfielder Kirsty Lamb will be unavailable for selection this week as she manages hamstring soreness following last weekend’s match against the Gold Coast SUNS.

Yartapuulti will announce its extended squad for the Round 4 clash on Thursday at 5:50pm ACST, with the final team to be confirmed on Friday at 4:30pm ACST.
