Nathan Grima had a week to freshen up and is now raring to go for the match against West Coast at Patersons Stadium on Friday night.

The key defender missed the Roos’ Round 7 game against the Bulldogs with ‘general soreness’ but has been named in the 22-man squad.

Grima was lauded after his last outing in Hobart where he shut down Port Adelaide forward Justin Westhoff.  Brad Scott and the Kangaroos will be hoping he can have the same impact against either Josh Kennedy or Jack Darling when the ball is bounced in Perth.

As NMFC.com.au reported earlier, captain Andrew Swallow and Aaron Mullett have also been named despite respective injury concerns.

Will Sierakowski has been omitted and he will be an emergency with Taylor Hine and Kieran Harper.
