SAM Dunell's inclusion for Brodie Murdoch on the extended interchange bench is the solitary change to the 25-man squad that was selected for St Kilda's round eight clash against Carlton.

Terry Milera, who hasn't played a senior game this season but has demonstrated consistent form in the VFL, and Josh Saunders, have both been retained after the small forwards were named as the emergencies last weekend.

Neither player took part in Sandringham's VFL clash against Footscray on Saturday and were held over to provide cover for the Saints Monday evening match.

Dunell's elevation to the 25-man squad, which will be finalised at 4pm on Friday, follows a best on ground performance for the Zebras last week in which he had four scoring shots and took nine marks.
