Big forward Finnbar Maley is among eight inclusions as North Melbourne aims to keep its slim VFL finals hopes alive against Sandringham on Sunday.
Maley was omitted from the AFL side following the 101-point loss to Geelong in Round 20.
Young defender Wil Dawson, also an AFL omission, returns to the VFL side that was pipped after the siren by the Cats at Arden St last week.
The pair are joined by six VFL-listed inclusions: Connor Downie, Oliver Lowe, Bode Stevens, Matthew Clarkson, Nathaniel Sulzberger and Paddy O'Sullivan.
