WESTERN Bulldogs midfielder Adam Treloar will play his first game since injuring his syndesmosis joint in round 10.
Treloar is one of three changes made by the Dogs in their match against Essendon, with Ed Richards and Taylor Duryea returning to the side.
Mitch Hannan is out with a shoulder injury, high-flying youngster Cody Weightman has been managed while Roarke Smith has been dropped.
Three changes have been made to the Essendon side which fell just short of Sydney – Dyson Heppell (hand) and Kyle Langford (hamstring) will miss, with Archie Perkins omitted.
Marty Gleeson, Matt Guelfi and Alec Waterman come into the team.
Hawthorn has swung five changes (inclusive of used medi-sub Damon Greaves), with Ollie Hanrahan regaining his spot after some strong VFL form.
Jonathan Ceglar is back, while Ned Reeves, Tyler Brockman and Denver Grainger-Barras have all been managed. Jacob Koschitzke has also been recalled after a week's rest.

Collingwood has made just the one change, bringing in Beau McCreery for fellow youngster Trent Bianco.

The teams for Monday's West Coast-Melbourne clash will be finalised on Saturday at 4.30pm AEST.
