North Melbourne Tasmanian Kangaroos captain Jasmine Garner returns to the side for Sunday's Grand Final rematch with Brisbane at Brighton Homes Arena on Sunday.

The star onballer suffered a left ankle injury against Fremantle in Round 3 and missed last week's 45-point victory over Collingwood at Arden Street.

It's been a rapid recovery for Garner, who was initially expected to miss at least two weeks of football.
