First-year coach Andrew McQualter has rung the changes for his side, with three debutants all getting the call up for a flight to western Sydney. Sandy Brock, Tom Gross and Hamish Davis are all playing AFL game number one, while Clay Hall is the fourth inclusion to replace all of Jeremy McGovern, Liam Ryan, Elijah Hewett and Harry Edwards.

Meanwhile, Adam Kingsley rung one unforced change on Friday afternoon, but has been forced into a late change just an hour before the bounce. Stephen Coniglio is a late withdrawal, and has been replaced by Callum Brown. Jake Riccardi came in for veteran Lachlan Keeffe 48 hours earlier.

The first bounce hit the turf at 1:10pm local time in Sydney, with Xavier O’Halloran (Giants) and debutant Hamish Davis (Eagles) the starting substitutes.
