THE WESTERN Bulldogs have received a double boost ahead of their Sunday afternoon match against ladder-leading St Kilda with Brownlow Medallists Adam Cooney and Jason Akermanis added to the final 22.
Cooney has been passed fit after undergoing knee surgery two weeks ago while Akermanis has served a one-match suspension for tripping.
Youngsters Jarrad Grant and Callan Ward make way for the pair.
The Saints have also got a huge inclusion, with 2001 NAB AFL Rising Star winner Justin Koschitzke returning from a hamstring injury to replace the injured Steven King.
After its first win of the season, Richmond heads into this weekend's clash with the Sydney Swans unchanged.
Star Matthew Richardson injured his glute muscle in the victory over North Melbourne, but is expected to play after competing a week of training unhampered.
The Swans are at the other end of the spectrum; Barry Hall is back after a couple of weeks out with a groin ailment and is joined by Michael O’Loughlin for his first game of the year.
Canadian Mike Pyke will make his AFL debut while Jarred Moore has earned a recall.
The Demons will be lifted for their clash with the Cats by the inclusion of high-flying forward Russell Robertson for his first game since mid-2008.
He's joined by Addam Maric as they come in to replace Neville Jetta and Michael Newton.
Like Richmond, undefeated Geelong has named an unchanged line-up.
