Brown played the first three games of the season before suffering back issues and hasn't been sighted at senior level since. He returns for van Rooyen, while James Harmes and Jake Bowey also come back into the side.  

The Giants bring back former Demon Jesse Hogan to face his original side in Alice Springs, having chosen to leave out Cadman, and Isaac Cumming also returns to replace the suspended Lachie Whitfield.

Wingard is joined by Fergus Greene and young midfielder Josh Ward in the Hawks side to face Carlton in Sunday's early game at the MCG. Lachie Bramble, Cameron Mackenzie and Jacob Koschitzke have all been left out of the best 22, while Tyler Brockman is out with illness.

The Blues have recalled Jack Silvagni and Ed Curnow as per Thursday night's teams release, replacing Matt Cottrell (suspension) and Marc Pittonet (knee) in the best 22.

And in the twilight game, St Kilda has brought back Seb Ross to replace Ben Paton, while West Coast has added experienced pair Shannon Hurn and Jamie Cripps in place of injured pair Sam Petrevski-Seton and Elliot Yeo.
