St Kilda has made five changes for Sunday's VFL clash with Carlton at RSEA Park, headlined by the return of young defender Alix Tauru.

The 19-year-old high-flyer will play his first game since serving a suspension, and is joined by fellow key defender Dougal Howard.

Angus Hastie and Charlie Banfield have also been added to the line-up to face the Blues.

The clash will be streamed live at AFL.com.au or the official AFL app, with the bounce at 10:05am AEST.
