Cale Morton and Austin Wonaeamirri will both play for the first time this season in Saturday night’s game against Port Adelaide in Darwin.

Morton returns from a knee injury sustained in the NAB Cup, while Wonaeamirri returns after missing the entire 2009 season and the start of 2010 with hamstring and knee injuries.


Wonaeamirri - from the Tiwi Islands near Darwin - will get the chance to play for the Demons in his home state for the first time, along with local hero Aaron Davey.

Morton and Wonaeamirri head a list of five inclusions, with experienced duo Brad Miller and Joel Macdonald earning a recall thanks to good form with the Casey Scorpions in the VFL.

Jake Spencer replaces Paul Johnson as a back-up ruckman, and will play his second AFL game of the year.

Matthew Warnock will miss with general soreness, joining Matthew Bate (ankle) and veteran Cameron Bruce (general soreness) on the sidelines. Daniel Hughes is the other omission.
