The GIANTS have made one change for this Sunday’s final game of the home and away season in Ballarat.

Draftee Harvey Thomas will return to the side after being managed for last weekend’s nine-point win over the Dockers.

The round 14 Rising Star had played 21 games straight for the GIANTS following his opening round debut against Collingwood at ENGIE Stadium.

The young 19-year-old averages 11.7 disposals, 6.7 handballs and 2.8 tackles per game and will return this week to play his role in the orange tsunami.

Defender Lachie Ash will miss the game through a one-match suspension for rough conduct.

The GIANTS will take on the Bulldogs at 12:30pm Sunday at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
