Richmond will welcome back Mykelti Lefau, amongst three other additions, for Saturday's mega VFL Elimination Final against Brisbane at Brighton Homes Arena.
Alongside Lefau, who returns from his rehab block after suffering a calf strain during his AFL return, is Sam Phillips, Tom Ferguson and Jed Feneley.
The quartet replace captain Lachlan Street (ankle), Nick Guiney (shoulder), Steely Green (ineligible) and Campbell Gray (concussion).
It's the first time in three seasons that the Tigers have reached an Elimination Final, after bowing out of the last two Wildcard Finals in heartbreaking fashion.
Jake Batchelor's men will have the task of Brisbane away from home, but will look to their April defeat of the Lions at home as inspiration.
The first bounce at Brighton Homes Arena is set for 12:05pm this Saturday.
All matches in the 2025 Smithy’s VFL and VFLW seasons will be live streamed free via the AFL website, AFL Live Official App and VFL App.
