North Melbourne has locked in its VFL line-up for its Round 8 match against Richmond at Arden Street Oval on Sunday afternoon.

Ruck-forward Brynn Teakle returns to the side after missing last week's loss to Brisbane due to a plantar fascia issue.

He's joined by Geordie Payne and VFL-listed duo Connor Downie and Ben Huggard as this week's inclusions.

Coming out of the side is Zac Fisher, who will be on AFL duty, while Darcy Tucker will miss due to back soreness.

After kicking three goals against the Lions last week, Cooper Trembath will be managed. Defender Ben Hopkins has been omitted.
