MELBOURNE will face GWS on Thursday night with two inclusions to its final 21.

The Dees welcome club debutant Sarah D’arcy and AFLW debutant Delany Madigan into their Week 6 line-up.

Madigan joined the Dees during last year’s draft and will bolster the backline, while D'Arcy comes into the team as a top-up selection, providing experience as a medium forward.

Paxy Paxman (foot) and Eliza McNamara (nose) will both miss the game due to their respective injury concerns.

Jo Lin, Sophie Casey and Jemma Rigoni have all been named on the emergency list.

Melbourne will host GWS at its inner-city home of IKON Park on Thursday night with the first bounce scheduled for 7:15pm.
