St Kilda has finalised its team to face Adelaide at RSEA Park on Sunday.

Five fresh faces will pull on the red, white and black against the Crows to begin the season, highlighted by two AFL debutants in Zoe Besanko and Kyla Forbes.

Besanko and Forbes, two of the Saints' three selections in the 2024 national draft, will make their debuts in the clash after being surprised with the news together during the week.

Joining them are three club debutants in Amber Clarke, Charlotte Baskaran and Arianna Clarke, who have all previously featured in the AFLW at Essendon, Hawthorn and Brisbane respectively.

Georgia Patrikios will make her long-awaited return from injury after missing the entire 2024 season, while Molly McDonald will play her 50th AFLW game.
