North Melbourne has recalled several key players for Saturday afternoon’s clash against Carlton.
Nick Larkey (foot) will play his first game since round one, while fellow forward Cam Zurhaar (calf) is another valuable inclusion.
The pair formed a strong combination in attack throughout 2019, along their way to NAB Rising Star nominations.
Zurhaar was one of the Roos’ best in the loss to Essendon a fortnight ago.
It’s been a long road to recovery for Luke Davies-Uniacke (pubic overload), but the exciting midfielder performed strongly in a scratch match last week.
He will play his first game since Round 20 last year.
Jed Anderson provides some valuable toughness through the midfield after overcoming quad soreness, with Jack Ziebell sidelined.
Aiden Bonar is out with soreness, while Mason Wood and Marley Williams have been omitted.
Sam Durdin, Tristan Xerri, Tom Murphy and Lachie Hosie are on the emergency list.
In: Jed Anderson, Luke Davies-Uniacke, Nick Larkey, Cam Zurhaar
Out: Marley Williams (omitted), Jack Ziebell (hamstring), Aiden Bonar (soreness), Mason Wood (omitted)
