Three Saints will make their first senior appearances of 2020 ahead of Sunday's season restart against the Western Bulldogs.

Jake Carlisle, Nicholas Hind and Nick Coffield will don the red, white and black for the first time in 2020 in Round 2, with Luke Dunstan, Dean Kent and Dylan Roberton all omitted.

Back issues prevented a Round 1 berth for Carlisle, but thanks to a diligent training regime over the shutdown period, the big man is now primed and ready.

Hind and Coffield, meanwhile, have been banging down the selection door since their return to the club, impressing enough to earn a spot in the senior side.

Ben Long and Jade Gresham are fit and firing following injuries sustained in Round 1, while Jack Steele is good to go after minor wrist surgery.

Josh Battle and Jonathon Marsh – along with Kent and Dunstan – have been named as emergencies.

St Kilda will set its sights on securing its first win of the year against the Western Bulldogs on Sunday, 14 June at Marvel Stadium, with the opening bounce at 6:05pm.

Note: Jack Sinclair has replaced Dean Kent as an emergency for Sunday's match.

IN: Carlisle, Coffield, Hind
OUT: Dunstan (omitted), Kent (omitted), Roberton (omitted)
