The former Western Bulldog was a late withdrawal against the Cats on Easter Monday, but the Hawks did name recycled recruits Jon Simpkin and Matt Spangher.
FULL ROUND 2 LINE-UPS AND CHAT REPLAY BELOW
Hodge returned through VFL affiliate Box Hill last week but was considered a Round 3 prospect at the earliest.
Melbourne coach Mark Neeld has axed two of his controversial mature-age recruits in the fallout from last week's embarrassing 79-point loss to Port Adelaide.
David Rodan and Cam Pedersen were axed among four changes, with Luke Tapscott and Lynden Dunn (hamstring) also out of the side to face Essendon on Saturday night.
Veteran Aaron Davey, co-captain Jack Trengove, defender Tom McDonald and debutant Dean Terlich are set to face the Dons at the MCG on Saturday night.
The Bombers made no changes after their impressive win against Adelaide two weeks ago.
St Kilda is set to roll the dice on defenders Sam Fisher and Sean Dempster when it battles Richmond tomorrow night.

Scott Watters axed Trent Dennis-Lane and lost boom ruckman Tom Hickey (foot), James Gwilt (knee) and Farren Ray (hip) to injury.
The Tigers' backline will receive strong reinforcement from the reinvented Ricky Petterd and injury-riddled Dylan Grimes for the MCG clash.
Hayden Crozier will replace goalsneak Hayden Ballantyne when the Dockers face the Western Bulldogs at Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
The Dogs left their side unchanged for the first time in coach Brendan McCartney's tenure after last week's surprise 68-point demolition of Brisbane Lions.
Prized draft picks Jackson Macrae and jake Stringer are edging towards debuts as well after their impressive form at VFL level.
Macrae produced a scintillating second half for affiliate Williamstown last week while Stringer blitzed the second-tier league when trialled with Bendigo Gold as the 23rd man last year.
Shtudown king Nick Lower will face his former side for the first time.
Collingwood resisted the urge to bring back Dale Thomas, who returned last week in the VFL, but did name Heath Shaw after he missed last week with gastro.

It took JAEGER O'Meara some time to adjust to the tempo of football at the elite level in his debut last week. Managing only five disposals in the opening three quarters, he lifted his output in the final term, collecting seven disposals and 32 points. He finished with a respectable 72 points.

SUPERCOACH NOTES
DANYLE Pearce starred on his Fremantle debut in Round 1 finishing with 23 disposals, two goals and 130 points. Known for his ability to win the ball in space, it was his inside work that shone against the Eagles, winning an equal career-high 15 contested possessions.
BRISBANE LIONS v ADELAIDE at the GABBA from 4.40pm
BRISBANE LIONS
B: M.Golby D.Merrett R.Lester
HB: J.Adcock J.Patfull E.Yeo

SUPERCOACH NOTES:
MATTHEW Leuenberger played a full match in the NEAFL last week, finishing with 19 disposals, four clearances, five inside 50s and 128 points. With a clash against Sam Jacobs on the cards, the Lions will be keen get him back into the side.
ADELAIDE

In: I.Callinan , B.Crouch
Out: G.Johncock (Omitted) , B.Martin (Omitted)
SUPERCOACH NOTES:
PATRICK Dangerfield had his colours lowered in the season opener against Essendon, managing only 63 points. He was given very little space and when he did have the ball his kicking was woeful, recording a team-low kicking efficiency of 30%. He'll have his work cut out against the Lions as well with Andrew Raines his likely opponent if he's named.
ESSENDON v MELBOURNE at the MCG from 7.40pm
ESSENDON

EMG: W.Hams D.Hille E.Kavanagh
NO CHANGE
SUPERCOACH NOTES
There were no signs of a Brownlow Medal hangover from JOBE Watson against Adelaide. The skipper led the Bombers to a morale boosting win, racking up a game-high 34 disposals on his way to 121 points. He also generated seven clearances and seven inside 50s, while chipping in to score one goal.
MELBOURNE
B: T.Gillies J.Frawley D.Terlich
HB: J.Watts T.McDonald C.Garland

SUPERCOACH NOTES
JACK Watts was outstanding against Essendon in Round 10 last season, finishing with 24 disposals, seven marks (three intercepts), seven rebound 50s and 110 points. His ability to read the play shone, recording 13 intercept possessions – four more than any other player on the ground.
PORT ADELAIDE v GWS GIANTS, SATURDAY at 7.40pm at AAMI STADIUM
PORT ADELAIDE
B: Tom Jonas, Alipate Carlile, Cameron O'Shea
HB: Jasper Pittard, Jackson Trengove, Lewis Stevenson
C: Kane Cornes, Travis Boak, Brad Ebert

I/C: Campbell Heath, Kane Mitchell, Matthew Lobbe, Matthew Broadbent
EMG: Sam Colquhoun, Andrew Moore, Aaron Young
In: Carlile
Out: Moore (omitted)
SUPERCOACH NOTES:
If HAMISH Hartlett remains injury free this year, then he looms as a boom recruit for any coach. He started strongly against the Demons, finishing with 29 disposals, four clearances, five inside 50s, two goals and 123 points. With the added bonus of dual position eligibility, he has to be considered.
GWS GIANTS
B: A Kennedy T Mohr P Davis
HB: T Bugg S Gilham C Hampton
C: T Scully C Ward W Hoskin-Elliott
HF: S Coniglio J Cameron D Shiel
F: L Sumner J Patton D Smith
R: J Giles A Treloar T Greene
I/C: D Brogan R Palmer L Plowman L Whitfield
EMG: S Frost S Darley S Reid
In: Rhys Palmer
Out: Taylor Adams (hip)
SUPERCOACH NOTES:
Opposition sides are likely to target TOBY Greene after his outstanding debut season. Sydney used Ryan O'Keefe on him effectively last week, restricting him to 11 disposals, one mark, one tackle and 45 points. He can expect to have Kane Cornes by his side this round.
GEELONG v NORTH MELBOURNE, SUNDAY, ETIHAD STADIUM at 1.10pm
GEELONG

In: J.Corey , J.Kelly , M.Brown , J.Stringer , J.Thurlow
Out: J.Rivers (Knee) , J.Murdoch (Hand)
SUPERCOACH NOTES:
If it wasn't for JIMMY Bartel's strong finish to Monday's match against Hawthorn, then his score would have been unacceptable. He collected 10 of his 22 disposals for the match in the final term, with 43 of his 88 points scored in that quarter as well.
NORTH MELBOURNE
B: S.McMahon S.Thompson M.Firrito
HB: J.Macmillan N.Grima S.Atley

In: S.McMahon , L.Greenwood , M.Daw , T.Hine
Out: S.Wright (Knee)
SUPERCOACH NOTES
ANDREW Swallow is clearly one of the safest premium midfielders going around, playing in 89 consecutive matches – the second-longest streak of any player in the AFL. He dominated in the season opener against Collingwood, finishing with 34 disposals, nine tackles, seven clearances and a team-high 137 points.
COLLINGWOOD v CARLTON, SUNDAY, MCG FROM 3.20pm

R: D.Jolly S.Pendlebury J.Blair
I/C: M.Clarke J.Frost B.Johnson B.Kennedy B.Macaffer J.Russell J.Thomas
In: H.Shaw , B.Kennedy , P.Seedsman
SUPERCOACH NOTES:
SCOTT Pendlebury will be looking to redeem himself against Carlton this week in what will be his 150th AFL match. He was nullified by Andrew Carrazzo in Round 3 last season, recording only 10 disposals form the 63 minutes they were matched up.
CARLTON
B: C.Yarran M.Jamison L.Henderson
HB: Z.Tuohy D.Armfield B.Gibbs
C: K.Simpson A.Carrazzo M.Robinson
HF: C.Judd A.Walker J.Garlett

In: S.Rowe , S.White , J.Laidler , M.Davies , D.Buckley , T.Bell
Out: E.Betts (Jaw) , A.Joseph (Omitted) , S.Hampson (appendix removed)
SUPERCOACH NOTES:
CHRIS Judd has excelled against the Magpies since 2010, averaging 114 points per game – ranked No.1 at the club. Averaging 30 disposals, 15 contested possessions, seven clearances and six inside 50s per match, he dominated in the two meetings last season, racking up 35 and 32 disposals respectively.
WEST COAST v HAWTHORN, SUNDAY, 4.40pm at PATERSONS STADIUM
WEST COAST
B: A.Selwood D.Glass M.Brown
HB: S.Hurn W.Schofield B.Waters

In: S.Butler , M.Brown , B.Dalziell , J.Brennan , B.Wilson , C.Sinclair
Out: M.LeCras (arm) , E.Mackenzie (Hamstring) , S.Lycett (Omitted)
SUPERCOACH NOTES:
MARK LeCras' wretched injury run continues after he suffered a fractured arm against Fremantle – an injury that will sideline him up to one month. He impressed in the lead up, finishing with 14 disposals, eight tackles, two goals and 91 points. A straight swap for team mate Josh Kennedy is your best option.
HAWTHORN
B: R.Schoenmakers J.Gibson B.Guerra
HB: G.Birchall B.Stratton S.Burgoyne
C: I.Smith S.Mitchell B.Hill
HF: C.Rioli L.Franklin P.Puopolo

I/C: L.Hodge J.Anderson D.Hale S.Savage J.Simpkin M.Spangher L.Shiels
In: L.Hodge , J.Simpkin , M.Spangher
SUPERCOACH NOTES:
SAM Mitchell found plenty of the ball last week against Geelong, winning 24 of his 37 disposals in the defensive half. He was the top ranked player for the match courtesy of his 141 points – 19 more than any other Hawthorn player.
