At least three changes will be made for the AAMI SA U18 Team when it hosts the Allies at Alberton Oval in Game 2 of the Marsh AFL National Championships on Sunday.<\/p>\n
Coming off a narrow 12-point loss to Western Australia in Game 1, the Croweaters have included wingman Jack Leys, forward Josh Bell and defender Hugo Jaeschke in the 24-player line-up.<\/p>\n
Bottom-age ball magnet Laurence Andriani is also a chance to don the cherished red guernsey after being named on the six-player extended interchange bench.<\/p>\n
Richmond father-son prospect Leys has overcome a hamstring strain which kept him out of Game 1 while Bell and Jaeschke will also get their chance to perform their roles on the national stage.<\/p>\n
Captained by dynamic midfielder Kodah Edwards and coached by Tony Bamford, the Croweaters will be looking to chalk up their first win of the carnival from 1.10pm SA time.<\/p>\n
Already without joint vice-captain Dougie Cochrane (knee), South Australia is also missing tall midfielder Archie Van Dyk (lower back).<\/p>\n
Following the contest against the Allies on Sunday, the Croweaters will finish with away clashes against Victoria Metro (Friday July 3) and Victoria Country (Wednesday July 8).<\/p>\n
All matches in the 2026 Marsh U18 AFL National Championships will be live-streamed via the match centre on the AFL website and AFL Live Official App.<\/p>\n
