The pair – who featured together in St Kilda’s 2009 grand final side – will run out in Scottsdale colours to take on Longford on April 23.

Milne played an integral part in the Scottsdale line-up last time the North-East club met Longford late last year.

Schneider will come into the side following his retirement from the AFL last year.

Milne has continued to play since he left the AFL.

Schneider won an AFL premiership with the Sydney Swans in 2005.

Scottsdale secretary Peter Fish would not say how much the coup cost the club, but said it was exciting to have the pair on board for the game.

‘‘We got in touch with Stephen’s manager and he suggested that Adam Schneider might be available too,’’ Fish said.

‘‘Last time Milne came down he was very popular.’’

Fish said the game against Longford would take place at Scottsdale on Saturday, April 23. 

‘‘Last time is was pouring with rain,’’ Fish said.

‘‘So hopefully this nice weather we’re having will last until April.’’
