Western Force playmaker Jono Lance is in line to return after missing the past 14 weeks through injury.

Lance hasn’t played since tearing his pectoral in round three against the Brumbies and will add valuable experience to a struggling Force side.

Interim head coach Dave Wessels will also welcome back Wallabies squad members Adam Coleman, Luke Morahan and Dane Haylett-Petty, with the latter also being named vice-captain.

A new face as been included in the squad with Sydney University product Matt Phillips flying to South Africa with the squad after training with the Force for the past three weeks.

The Western Force play the Cheetahs at 11pm AEST, Saturday, LIVE on FOX SPORTS.
