The 18-year-old suffered a concussion on the weekend of her side's St Helens match against the Northern Hawks.

"I'm recovering well, I've been training for a couple of weeks now so it'll be good to get back out there with the girls," she said.

Dufty will fit in with a staunch Cavs defence that has kept opposing offences in tow during the bulk of this season.

"My height is obviously one of the biggest advantages - working with Estelle [Margetts], Bec [Hyland], Shannae [Heazlewood] and when Hannah [Lenthall] comes in just through the [game] talk," she said.

"That's always been a focus for me and it always will be, but they're netballers I've always looked up to so just to get out on the court with them will be great."

The Cavs will play Devon at 4pm on Saturday at the Silverdome.
