The GIANTS have named their side for their round one blockbuster against St Kilda at GIANTS Stadium on Sunday.
As revealed earlier in the week, draftee Tanner Bruhn and sixth-year ruck Matt Flynn will make their AFL debuts.
Second-year players Lachie Ash and Tom Green have been included, along with young GIANTS Jack Buckley, Connor Idun and Isaac Cumming.
All bar Ash finished the 2020 season in the senior side while Ash played 12 of 17 games last year.
Key defender Phil Davis will line up in defence after building up from off-season knee surgery, in a backline alongside Lachlan Keeffe, All Australian Nick Haynes and the returning Sam Taylor.
Lively small forward Bobby Hill will also play up forward and make his first appearance of the year.
Following the introduction of the medical sub this week, one of the emergencies will be named the sub when the team is finalised 60 minutes from the first bounce.
The GIANTS take on the Saints on Sunday at GIANTS Stadium at 3:20pm.
Get ready to celebrate a big big season with the GIANTS. Be there live, tickets start from just $25 for adults and $50 for families.
