IMPOSING midfielder Brady Grey will return to the Peel Thunder’s line-up this weekend, after being managed by the Fremantle Dockers.
Grey will be joined in his return by Darcy Tucker and Zac Clarke, who have also been left out of the Dockers’ 22.
Grey and Tucker have played the last fortnight with Fremantle, putting in impressive showings.
Tucker picked up 16 disposals in his Fremantle debut against Carlton two weeks ago and followed up with a 13 disposal performance in the side’s loss to Adelaide in round six.
Grey had similar contributions, tallying 16 and 14 disposals across the respective weeks.
The trio will return to Peel and hope to continue their good form for the Thunder before they were selected for the Dockers side.
Grey was in dominant form for the Thunder before his fortnight in Fremantle’s side, while Clarke and Tucker were contributing nicely.
But the Thunder will feel the losses of Ethan Hughes, Garrick Ibbotson and Nick Suban.
Hughes will play his second game for the Dockers after debuting in round 23 in 2015, while experienced players Ibbotson and Suban have been included in the side after a fortnight at Peel Thunder.
The trio were providing solid dash through the middle of the ground for the Thunder, while Suban kicked three goals last week.
Hughes has averaged 20 disposals for the Thunder this year, and has been impressive coming off the half-back line.
The Thunder could also be without Matt de Boer, Ed Langdon and Jack Hannath, who have been named as emergencies for the Dockers.
The Thunder play West Perth at HBF Arena on Saturday at 2.15pm, while the Dockers host GWS Giants at Domain Stadium on Saturday at 6.10pm.
