Elliot Lamb (North City) comes in as the 23rd player, while Joe Dodd (East Point) has been included in the side after multiple injuries over the past three years.
Rebels coach Gerard FitzGerald said the moment would be a rewarding one for Dodd after having worked hard to get himself right.
“It’s Dodd’s first game with us after some really challenging times over the last few years with injury,” he said.
“He is a really respected member of the group because he has worked hard on his rehab, so people will be pleased he has got a game.”
