St Kilda has finalised its team to face Richmond at the MCG on Saturday.

The Saints have made three changes to the side that defeated the Kangaroos at Marvel Stadium on Sunday.

Mattaes Phillipou makes his return to the team for the first time since Round 12 after recovering from a nagging Plantaris injury. Phillipou provides a welcome boost to the side in what will be just his fifth appearance of the year.

Darcy Wilson similarly returns to the side after last appearing in Round 19 against the Cats. Wilson produced an incredible VFL outing against the Casey Demons upon exiting concussion protocols, amassing 37 disposals and 14 clearances in a best on ground display.

Liam Henry is the third inclusion after also impressing in the VFL over the weekend, collecting 16 disposals and a goal.

Mitch Owens (hamstring) and Ryan Byrnes (foot) will both miss the clash through injury, while Angus Hastie has been omitted.

Captain Jack Steele will play his 200th game against the Tigers, while Jack Higgins will make his 100th appearance for St Kilda.

The starting sub will be named an hour prior to the bounce on Saturday.
