Jack Hutchinson will make his return from injury as the WAFL Eagles prepare to take on Peel Thunder at Lane Group Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Hutchinson has been named at full forward after missing the past three matches with a hamstring injury sustained in the AFL round 20 clash against Brisbane.

The hard-running utility will be eager to hit the ground running as he builds match fitness ahead of the closing stages of the season.

Three changes have been made to the side that faced Subiaco last weekend, with Hutchinson joined in the line-up by Thomas-Edwards Baldwin (hip) and James Ewing (ankle) returning to the side after missing a week through injury.

The Eagles will be without Elijah Hewett, who is sidelined with a calf cork, while Tylah Williams continues his recovery from the broken leg suffered in last week’s match.

Hamish Davis is unavailable after earning selection in the AFL squad.

The Eagles head to Lane Group Stadium looking to keep their finals hopes alive when they face Peel Thunder at 2.30pm.
