Turner will strengthen Melbourne’s backline providing further height as they look to quell the impact of Fremantle talents such as Josh Treacy and Patrick Voss.
Chandler comes in to boost the team across the forward half of the ground, bringing class and leadership to a young line of Demons.
Blake Howes exits the side as he recovers from a fracture to his arm sustained in Round 21.
Paddy Cross has been omitted but has been named on the emergency list alongside Xavier Taylor and Max Heath.
Senior coach Steven King said the group was excited for the Saturday battle, facing up to such a high caliber side.
"It's a great dress rehearsal for both teams really," King said.
"For us, it's just a great test to see where we're at and where we've grown.
"We played them in Round 2 over there and started really poorly on the road, and I think we've evolved a lot, matured a lot, and grown a lot from that game.
"Our players are up for it, and we can't wait for it."
