The North Melbourne Tasmanian Kangaroos have made three changes for Saturday night's clash against Carlton. 

The defensive unit will gain some valuable experience, with Jess Duffin returning alongside Danielle Hardiman. 

Duffin will play her first game since 2019, with the star defender welcoming her first child last year, and sidelined with an adductor injury for the first four rounds of 2021.

After a week out, Sophie Abbatangelo is back in the Roos' forward-line. 

Jas Grierson will be managed and miss the must-win match, while Brooke Brown and Beth Lynch have been omitted.
