Geelong has made four changes to its team that will play Hawthorn at the MCG on Easter Monday.

Mitch Duncan and Jake Kolodjashnij will lineup in the senior side for the first time in 2023 after missing the opening three rounds.

Rhys Stanley and Gary Rohan also return to the 22 after being managed last week.

Tanner Bruhn (Omitted), Jonathon Ceglar (Managed), Sam De Koning (Injured) and Oliver Henry (Omitted) make way.

Geelong will name its substitute an hour prior to the first bounce.

It's the 12th time the two sides have met in the Easter Monday slot, with the Hawks winning the corresponding clash last season. 

Monday will be a huge day of football for both Clubs with a VFL curtain raiser prior and plenty of activities including the March to the 'G.
