Richmond's VFL side will receive a boost this weekend, with Ben Lennon and Corey Ellis returning from injury.

Ellis has been sidelined since Round 12 of the AFL season with a groin strain but will line up for the VFL Tigers when they travel to Ikon Park tomorrow.

Lennon will return after suffering a minor ankle injury two weeks ago.

The VFL Tigers are fresh off two consecutive wins and will set out to make it three against Northern Blues in Round 18.

The side welcomes the return of midfielder Kane Lambert, as well as debutant James Cousins.

Murray Bushranger and Mansfield product Cousins will line up as the VFL Tigers 23rd player.

Lambert returns from AFL duties, alongside young defender Jason Castagna.

Richmond's VFL side sits 12th on the ladder, while Northern Blues round out the top 10.

Saturday's match kicks off at 2pm. Supporters can enter Ikon Park via Gate 2.
