Forward Robert Hansen jnr will start as the substitute as North Melbourne celebrates its VFL/AFL Centenary against the Western Bulldogs on Thursday night.
North Melbourne has made five changes to its line-up, with high-flying forwards Zane Duursma and Finnbar Maley returning to the team for the match at Marvel Stadium, along with midfielders Will Phillips and Bailey Scott.
Cooper Harvey has also been named to make his season debut after impressing in the VFL as a half-back in recent weeks.
George Wardlaw (concussion), Jack Darling (groin), Luke Parker (ribs) and Luke McDonald (shoulder) have all been forced out of the side that fell to Hawthorn last weekend, while Zac Fisher (managed) will also miss.
Duursma, Scott, Phillips and Harvey have been named on the interchange bench.
Kallan Dawson, Callum Coleman-Jones and Zac Banch are the three emergencies.
Fans are urged to be in their seats by 6.45pm to witness Thursday night's pre-game spectacular, where past and present club legends will come together to honour 100 years of North Melbourne in the VFL/AFL.
