Sam Wright and Corey Wagner are set to make their returns from injury on Saturday, with the pair named in the Werribee line up to take on Footscray.

It’ll be Wright’s first game at any level since his JLT Series appearance in March against the Giants.

A series of ankle and foot complaints have held Wright back but the 26-year-old has overcome them to play on Saturday.

For Wagner it’ll be his first game since suffering a high ankle sprain in the early minutes of North’s win against Adelaide in early May.

Jed Anderson and Lachlan Hansen return to the VFL after being omitted from the North side.

While Hansen has been playing in the backline for the Roos, he has been named at centre-half-forward for Werribee.

Sam Durdin and Braydon Preuss have passed their respective concussion and ankle tests and are all set to line up in the key-position posts.

Ben McKay will make his return from a hip injury in the development league on Sunday afternoon in Williamstown.
