Speedy onballer Dylan Kerr, who left the Roos to play for Fitzroy Stars in the Northern Football League, will potentially wear the blue and the white for the remainder of the season.
Rovers coach Josh Bode said Kerr will be a definite starter if his clearance is signed off in time.
‘‘Dylan made it clear he wanted to come back to play for us so we put in the paperwork for a clearance on Monday,’’ he said.
‘‘He’ll add an extra spark to our midfield and we’re very happy to have him back.’’
The Roos are set to make at least two changes to the side with Caleb Pannell unavailable due to family commitments and assistant coach Djaran Whyman (ribs) set to miss.
‘‘Rhys McCulloch will come in along with Dylan (Kerr), so we’ll be adding plenty of pace,’’ Bode said.
‘‘Djaran copped a knock to the ribs last week so we decided not to risk him.
‘‘We’ll also play young Raymond Murphy in the side and not as the sub.
‘‘He’s shown he’s very capable and we’ll keep picking him if he continues to play the way he has been.’’
The Roos will head into the clash as heavy favourites, with the Bloods still yet to register a win in 2019.
Selection: Deni Rovers by 46 points.
