The 19-year-old midfielder headlines selection for the Rebels' round 13 clash against the Western Jets.
The Portland export has been sidelined with bone stress in recent weeks. His last appearance for the Rebels was in round nine.
South Warrnambool's Luamon Lual, Warrnambool's Ethan Boyd, Koroit's Connor Byrne and Camperdown's Hamish Sinnott have also been selected. Koroit's Jamie Lloyd is listed as emergency.
Talent Operations manager Brooke Brown said a return to basics was needed after a loss to Sandringham last round.
"We were disappointing in our skill error against the Dragons and really let an opportunity slip," she said.
"Our mistakes ended in Sandringham goals, which really hurt us."
The Rebels play at Williamstown Oval from 2.15pm on Saturday.
