The Suns are expected to welcome back a host of quality players for Saturday's match against Geelong at Metricon Stadium, led by co-captain Steven May.

May has missed the past fortnight with a hamstring injury and needs to only get through training this week to bolster the Suns' undermanned defence. 

David Swallow (rested) and Kade Kolodjashnij (illness) are also expected to return after missing Saturday night's loss against North Melbourne.

May's fellow key defender Rory Thompson (quad) is also a chance but needs to improve a lot through the week.
