North Melbourne coach Brad Scott has opted for more ammunition in the midfield, with Levi Greenwood and Liam Anthony named in the final team for the clash against the Dockers.

Greenwood is in for his first senior game of the season and could be handed a stopping role on one of Fremantle's dangerous midfielders.

Michael Barlow, David Mundy and Nathan Fyfe have all been in outstanding form for the Dockers, and keeping them in check will be paramount to the Kangaroos' chances.

The omission of Will Sierakowski paves the way for Liam Anthony to make the Patersons Stadium wing his own, and after a couple of appearances as a substitute, the number four will be desperate for some prolonged game-time.

As confirmed on Thursday, Scott McMahon will not make the trip after hurting his ankle at training during the week.

Brad McKenzie, Ben Jacobs and Luke Delaney are the emergencies.
