Jesse Hogan will play his first game for almost two months when Fremantle take on Richmond at Metricon Stadium on Wednesday.
The forward is one of three inclusions for the clash, joined by midfielders Blake Acres and Michael Frederick.
The trio come in for Connor Blakely (omitted), Liam Henry (omitted) and Brett Bewley, who has a minor groin injury.
OPPOSITION: Tigers make two changes
Defender Luke Ryan has been declared fit to play after pulling up sore following Fremantle’s clash with GWS in round 14.
Henry, Blakely, Tobe Watson and Travis Colyer have been named as the emergencies.
Acres last played in Fremantle’s loss to Geelong while Frederick returns after being managed for Saturday’s clash against GWS.
Hogan has played three games in 2020, last playing in Fremantle’s win against Adelaide, where he picked up a calf injury.
Senior coach Justin Longmuir confirmed that Hogan would play as a forward, despite spending a brief period training as a defender.
“The last two games in the ressies he’s been forward, we’ve been working on a bit of his forward craft. If he comes in, it will be at that end of the ground,” Longmuir said.
Fremantle to wear 'clash' Indigenous jumper against the Tigers
Meanwhile, Richmond have made two changes with Nathan Broad and Jack Higgins will returning to the Tigers lineup.
The pair replace Dylan Grimes who injured his hamstring in last Thursday's win against West Coast and Kane Lambert who has a minor hip complaint.
Bouncedown for the clash is at 7.10pm local time (5.10pm AWST) and will be broadcast live into WA on Fox Footy and 7mate.
It can also be streamed on Kayo and AFL Live Pass.
