ST KILDA finalised its 22-man team ahead of Sunday afternoon's game against Sydney, making four changes.

In comes the retiring Adam Schneider, alongside David Armitage, Dylan Roberton and Sean Dempster.

The four have played 636 games between them and will provide valuable experience against a finals-bound Swans outfit on Sunday. 

The quartet replaces Tim Membrey (shoulder), Farren Ray, Josh Saunders and Cameron Shenton. The latter three have been omitted.

Armitage missed round 21 with a minor shoulder complaint, while Sean Dempster had a broken nose and Dylan Roberton an ankle injury.

Ray, Simpkin and Saunders have been named as the emergencies.

Meanwhile, Sydney star Lance Franklin appears certain to play after battling back issues for the past five weeks. 

St Kilda's VFL affiliate, Sandringham, will take on Casey Scorpions on Saturday at Trevor Barker Beach Oval as it seeks to secure a home final.
