Ryan Nyhuis will return to play his fourth AFL game when Fremantle take on Richmond at Domain Stadium on Sunday.

Nyhuis has kicked five goals from three AFL games including his four goals on debut against North Melbourne in round 16.

Nyhuis is joined by Hayden Crozier and Harley Bennell, whose Freo debut was confirmed by senior coach Ross Lyon on Wednesday.

The game will be Bennell’s first in 722 days. The former no.2 draft pick last featured at AFL level for Gold Coast in round 22 of the 2015 season. 

Primarily a midfielder, Lyon indicated the Bennell would feature in Freo’s forward line as he builds back towards his best.

Crozier returns after a week out of the lineup due to concussion.

The trio come in for forward Shane Kersten (groin) and midfielders Lachie Neale (knee) and Danyle Pearce (omitted).

The game will be celebrated as Fremantle’s final match at Domain Stadium and will be Hayden Ballantyne’s 150th in the AFL.

Meanwhile, Richmond have made three changes including naming debutant Jack Graham.

The inside midfielder is joined by Jacob Townsend, who will play his first senior game of 2017, and defender Oleg Markov.

Josh Caddy (hamstring), Corey Ellis and Ivan Soldo are Richmond's omissions.
