Farren Ray has been promoted to North’s senior list for the second time in 2016.

The former Bulldog and Saint has replaced Shaun Higgins, who has been put on the long-term injury list.

“We’ll upgrade Farren Ray from the rookie list,” Brad Scott confirmed on Thursday morning.

“That will just spread the options we have available to us. We’ve still got a couple of decisions to make, but plenty of guys who can come in.”

Ray was first promoted to the Roos' senior list ahead of the Round 4 clash against Fremantle, and named as an emergency.
