Headlining the inclusions is Jhye Clark, who returns to the VFL after a stint with Geelong's AFL team, while experienced Cat Mitch Duncan is also set to face Casey.
Exciting forward, Oli Wiltshire has been added to the line-up, alongside Kye Annand who comes in for his first game of the 2025 VFL season.
Shaun Mannagh will return to the Cats AFL side on Friday night, with Darcy Edmends, Todd White and Taj Wyburd the other players to make way.
