Hawthorn has added four names to its 25-man squad set to face the Tigers on Sunday.
Three-time premiership player Paul Puopolo is set to make his welcome return, after spending five weeks on the sidelines recovering from a groin injury sustained against Adelaide.
Ty Vickery, Kurt Heatherley and Teia Miles have also been included in the extended squad.
The Hawks will be without veteran Luke Hodge, as he serves his one week suspension for striking Sydney’s Tom Papley.
The squad will be reduced to the final 22-man team at 5pm on Friday afternoon.
