RICHARD Tambling's stop-start campaign to make the final year of his contract count at Adelaide has stopped again.

The former Richmond midfielder is a surprise absentee from the Crows' 27-man squad for the NAB Cup clash with Geelong at Geelong on Saturday.

Tambling, a top-three disposal-earner in Adelaide's five-point win against Fremantle on Saturday, has reported back soreness and will not be pushed this weekend.

Adelaide list manager David Noble said: "Richard's back was sore early in the week. It's not a major issue, but we felt it best to rest him this week."

Adelaide has opted to persist with the trial of young defender Luke Brown for the vacancy created by Michael Doughty's retirement at the end of last season.

Adelaide is hopeful Tambling will resume in its last NAB Cup qualifier, against Carlton at AAMI Stadium, next Friday.

Adelaide's big search for a new ruck combination - in the wake of Kurt Tippett's defection to Sydney - has put another former Tiger out of the Crows squad with Angus Graham not in the 27 named by coach Brenton Sanderson today.

Lead ruckman Sam Jacobs returns for his first pre-season game of the summer. Adelaide has Josh Jenkins and Shaun McKernan on audition at Geelong on Saturday to be Jacob's ruck partner.

Adelaide, as expected, has put Jacobs, club champion Scott Thompson and experienced defenders Ben Rutten and Brent Reilly on a team sheet for the first time this pre-season.

All four should play in Adelaide's pen-ultimate game of the NAB Cup series that is set to end for the Crows against Carlton at AAMI Stadium next Friday.
