Cameron Joyce has locked in his 24-player squad for Sunday’s return to People First Stadium to take on Essendon.

The SUNS return to the Gold Coast on a short break following Wednesday night’s clash against Hawthorn in Melbourne.

There is one confirmed change with Elise Barwick returning to face the Bombers in place of Wallis Randell who will receive scans on her hamstring following Wednesday night’s match.

The final 21-player team will be confirmed on Friday evening.

First bounce is at 12:05pm with gates open from 11:15am. Be sure to get in early to secure one of 500 FREE upgrades to The Lounge for the first 500 people through the gates. Tickets are available here.
