The Gold Coast SUNS will inject a host of AFL listed talent into its VFL team for Saturday’s Round 9 fixture against Werribee at Avalon Aiport Oval.

Five changes have been made to Josh Drummond’s side that defeated Southport last week.

James Tsitas, Hewago Oea and Mabior Chol return to side from AFL duty while Oskar Faulkhead also returns after being named as an AFL emergency last week.

Ben Long missed last week’s AFL trip to Perth with soreness and will return to action in the VFL.

The team features 21 AFL listed players with the SUNS looking to reaffirm its spot at the top of the VFL ladder following an unbeaten start to the season.

The two sides have met once previously in the VFL with the SUNS recording a two-point win in May last year.

First bounce is at 12.05pm and will be streamed live through the VFL & AFL Live apps, as well as on AFL.com.au.
