Seven players have been added to the GIANTS squad as they get set to take on Carlton on Sunday in Melbourne.
Jeremy Cameron and Matt de Boer have been confirmed to return to take on the Blues, while five more players have been added to an extended interchange.
Cameron returns from a five-week suspension for his first game since round 14. The star forward has kicked 35 goals in 12 games this season, also missing a match with toe soreness in round seven.
De Boer has spent three weeks on the sidelines with an ankle injury but returned ahead of schedule through the NEAFL last week and finished with 36 disposals, 11 tackles and three goals.
Daniel Lloyd, Aiden Bonar, Harry Perryman, Isaac Cumming and Lachlan Keeffe have all been added to the extended interchange with the final 22 to be named at 5pm on Friday.
If selected, Aiden Bonar could become the club’s eighth debutant of the season.
Tim Taranto (knee), Dylan Shiel (ankle) and Sam Reid (knee) go out of the team with injury and will be assessed across the next week to determine their availability for round 21.
Sunday will mark Nick Haynes’ 100th game for the GIANTS since being selected with pick seven in the 2011 NAB AFL Draft.
The GIANTS take on Carlton at Etihad Stadium on Sunday afternoon at 1:10pm with live coverage on Channel 7 in NSW and the ACT and Fox Footy nationally.
