The match committee has made one change to the side that defeated North Melbourne last weekend. Aaron Joseph has been recalled to the team after missing two matches with a hamstring strain. Joseph injured his hamstring in the round 17 match against Collingwood and missed the victories against Essendon and North Melbourne.

Out of the side is Ryan Houlihan who celebrated his 200th AFL match in last Friday night’s victory. Houlihan has been named as an emergency, along with Setanta O’hAilpin and Kane Lucas.
