By correctly picking North Melbourne’s team for Round 1, you could win a match ball from the historic JLT Series match at Arden Street, signed by Jack Ziebell.

The form of several youngsters and new acquisitions has seen the battle for spots heat up over the pre-season.

First round draft pick Jy Simpkin has shown promising signs in his two JLT Series appearances, while Nathan Hrovat has been damaging around goals.

The midfield has seen a few changes, with the likes of Shaun Higgins, Shaun Atley and Lindsay Thomas all spending more time through there.

Meanwhile down back, Sam Durdin impressed at times, Ed Vickers-Willis played all three pre-season matches while former Magpie Marley Williams also showed he can be a option to shut down opposition small forwards.

To get you started, we’ve removed Ben Cunnington, Paul Ahern, Oscar Junker, Mason Wood and Ben Jacobs from the list of options given they’ll be unavailable for the match at Etihad Stadium.
