The GIANTS have added five players to their squad for Sunday’s Sydney Derby, with newcomer Aliesha Newman a confirmed inclusion to make her GIANTS debut.

An exciting small forward with 59 games of AFLW experience, Newman will don the orange and charcoal for the first time after joining the club via a trade with the Swans in the summer.

Known for speed and her willingness to take the game on, Newman will be sure to add a spark to the GIANTS on Sunday in her club debut as she takes on her former side for the first time.

Also added to Sunday’s extended squad is Isabel Huntington, Courtney Murphy, Annise Bradfield and Brodee Mowbray.

Huntington was a late out for last week’s clash with the Suns with knee soreness but was able to train fully this week and is available for selection against the Swans.

Murphy – a tall forward recruited from the Lions in the summer – will be looking to play her second game for the club after debuting against the Tigers in round two.

Meanwhile Bradfield has been named in the extended squad for the first time this season and would make her GIANTS debut should she be named in the final team of 21.

Mowbray is the fifth addition to the squad, with the medium forward looking to break through for her first game of the season after completing her recovery from an ACL injury suffered last year.

Reliable defender Emily Pease has also been named in the squad after getting through training following an ankle injury sustained in last week’s draw with the Suns.

The GIANTS will name their final team for round four on Friday at 5pm.

The GIANTS and the Swans will clash for bragging rights at Henson Park at 3:05pm on Sunday in the third AFLW Sydney Derby.
