Sarah Wright will make her return to the North Melbourne Tasmanian Kangaroos’ side for the big clash against Brisbane on Saturday.

The Roos travel to the Gabba for their Round 8 fixture, with Wright back from a wrist injury and straight into her usual role in defence.

Jas Grierson has been omitted for the game, and will be an emergency, alongside Georgia Hammond.
