Adelaide expects midfielder Scott Thompson to be available for Saturday’s clash against North Melbourne.

The two-time Club Champion has missed the past two matches due to a back-related hamstring complaint, but after a solid block of training is confident of a recall, according to the club’s website.

Thompson picked up 30 disposals when the teams last met in Round 13.

The Crows will also be sweating on the availability of fellow on-baller David Mackay, who was concussed in the loss against Richmond on Saturday night.
