North Melbourne has made one change to its side ahead of its marquee Good Friday SuperClash fixture against Carlton.
Young onballer George Wardlaw will make his long-awaited return to the senior side, having recovered from the serious hamstring injury he suffered during a January training session.
The No.4 pick from the 2022 draft featured in the VFL against Sydney on April 6, gathering 21 possessions and seven clearances across three quarters before playing in a match sim over the weekend.
Going out of the line-up is half-back Riley Hardeman.
There are no late changes to the team, with young gun Zane Duursma locked in as the substitute following his first senior game of the season last weekend.
