His inclusion reunites him with No.1 draft pick Harley Reid.

The midfield pair have formed a devastating partnership this year, leading fans to name them in honour of the comic-book crime-fighting duo.

Adelaide will be without injured duo Izak Rankine and Elliott Himmelberg.

Geelong's bid to snap a three-match losing run in Saturday's home encounter with Greater Western Sydney has been boosted by the return of Hawkins, Cameron, Mitch Duncan and Sam De Koning.

Hawkins will break the record for most games played at Geelong when he runs out for the 356th time this weekend.

The Giants, who have also lost three in a row, will be without injured duo Jack Buckley and Darcy Jones.

Into the side come captain Jarrod Witts and Nick Holman after they were rested last week, along with Jed Walter and Jake Rogers.
