Duursma also started as sub in the Good Friday match against Carlton, following his first senior game of the season the previous weekend.   

Defenders Zac Fisher (hamstring), Aidan Corr and Griffin Logue (both omitted) will all miss Saturday's game.

Kallan Dawson has been named to make his season debut, with his last senior appearance coming back in the final round of 2024.

He's joined in the side by Jackson Archer, who will play his first AFL game since Round 1 of this year, and Riley Hardeman.

Hardeman, George Wardlaw, Dylan Stephens and Tom Powell have been named on the interchange bench.
