The GWS Giants have made two changes ahead of their clash with the Gold Coast SUNS at Spotless Stadium this Saturday.

Coming off a 56-point defeat at the hands of Adelaide in round one, the Giants will be looking for redemption in their first home game of 2017.

Second year player Jacob Hooper makes his return to the seniors after dominant performances in the NEAFL trial matches.

Hooper made his AFL debut against the SUNS the last time the team travelled to Spotless Stadium.

Nathan Wilson has also earned a recall to the seniors after recovering from hip surgery in the off-season.

Tendai Mzunga (hamstring) and Matt Kennedy (omitted) have come out of the side.
