Hurstbridge welcome back three massive names in Caelan Anderson, Mitchell Moschetti and Cooper Perrin for their elimination final battle with Greensborough. Thomas Hird and Samuel House will miss for the Bridges.

The Boro make one change with Richmond VFL tall Thomas Brindley selected for his first game since a best on ground performance in his team’s upset win over Heidelberg in Round 15.

Lucas Hobbs and Blake Watson headline the inclusions for top of the ladder Whittlesea as they prepare to face South Morang in the second semi-final. The Lions bring back ruck Nathan Stefanile from injury.

Diamond Creek make two changes for their huge first semi-final against Lower Plenty. Andrew Elward will play his second senior game of the season for the Creekers, his other match was a four-goal effort over his Saturday opponents earlier this season.

The Bears will miss Riley Alexander, with Lewis Tsourou to take his place.

Old Paradians defender Sean Desmond headlines the four changes his side have made in the lead up to their massive preliminary final with Mernda. The Demons have made no changes from their semi-final win last week.
