Late Mail - Round 22 v Raiders

Update: Max King and Sandor Earl drop out of the squad. We will start 1-17.

Original story follows:

Jahrome Hughes returns to the starting lineup for our top four clash with the Raiders at AAMI Park on Saturday night.

Hughes was ruled out last weekend with back spasms but will start at fullback against Canberra, replacing Nicho Hynes.

Ryan Papenhuyzen also returns to the 21-man squad after being sidelined with a mid-foot sprain for Sunday's game against the Rabbitohs. 

Despite not returning to the field on Sunday after failing a HIA, Justin Olam has been ruled fit to play and has been named in the centres.
