Melbourne rookie Tom Couch will make his AFL debut against Fremantle at Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
The son of 1989 Brownlow Medallist Paul Couch was named Melbourne’s mid-season nominated rookie today, meaning he is eligible for senior selection for the rest of 2012.
The midfielder has been in good form for the Casey Scorpions in the VFL, highlighted by four goals and 25 disposals against Port Melbourne last Sunday.
