In a big boost for the Tigers, tenacious captain Toby Nankervis rejoins the Tigers after missing Round 20 due to concussion protocols, while superstar Dustin Martin returns from a back complaint for his 302nd AFL game. 

Meanwhile, hard-tackling midfielder Jack Graham will also be back in action, after being sidelined for the past two makes due games with a hip issue.

The three additions replace omitted pair Thomson Dow and Samson Ryan, as well as second-year Tiger Kaleb Smith, who won't play due to personal reasons.

Dow and Ryan have been named as emergencies for the clash, alongside small forward Matt Coulthard.

Saturday's game at Marvel kicks off at 1.45pm and will be broadcast live on Fox Footy and Kayo Sports.

In-form lively forward Rhyan Mansell will play his 50th AFL game against North Melbourne.
