Ed Richards has recovered from concussion to take his place in the side, while Anthony Scott also returns.
Alex Keath will miss the next six weeks with a hamstring strain, while Riley Garcia and Lachie McNeil have been omitted.
Scott joins Harvey Gallagher, Joel Freijah, Ryley Sanders and Caleb Daniel on the interchange bench, with one player set to be named sub one hour before bounce.
Jedd Buslinger, Oskar Baker, Lachie McNeil have been named emergencies.
The fixture will mark Rhylee West’s 50th AFL game.
