The Lions welcome back skipper Leah Kaslar, a late exclusion last week, while the Cats have added Rene Caris and Kate Darby to replace suspended pair Maddie Boyd and Aasta O'Connor.

The Crows have added first-year forward Chloe Scheer, but lose Courtney Cramey to a hamstring injury.
Carlton will have two debutants on Saturday when they host winless Collingwood at Ikon Park, with Charlotte Wilson and Emerson Woods in for their first games.
Darcy Guttridge will debut for the Pies who will regain Ash Brazill from a concussion.
