North Melbourne will head into its Sir Doug Nicholls Round clash with Richmond at the MCG unchanged, following Round 9's dramatic draw with Brisbane.

Young guns Finn O'Sullivan, Zane Duursma and Jacob Konstanty start on the interchange bench, along with Bailey Scott and veteran Luke Parker.

One of the five will be named as the substitute an hour before Sunday's 1.10pm bounce. 

Zac Fisher, Wil Dawson and Will Phillips are this week's emergencies. 

Skipper Jy Simpkin will lead out the Roos in their 2025 AFL Indigenous guernsey, in the first of their two matches celebrating Sir Doug Nicholls Round.

Inspired by Senior Wurundjeri Elder Aunty Joy Murphy Wandin AO and brought to life by Wemba Wemba, Gunditjmara, Ngadjonji and Taungurung artist Emma Bamblett, the guernsey will also be worn against Collingwood in Round 11.

The design titled ‘walert morrok goattak’, which means possum skin cloak in Woi Wurrung language, honours the club’s existence on Wurundjeri Country for 100 years and Aunty Joy’s connection to the club for over 10 years.
