AFLW-listed forward Sophia McCarthy is among the five ins for Sunday's Round 8 clash with Collingwood.

The 2022 draftee will become the fourth senior Kangaroo to feature in the VFLW this season following teammates Taylah Gatt, Cassidy Mailer and Ruby Tripodi, with Mailer to run out again this weekend.

1:16:30

Quick small forward Felicity Theodore returns to the line-up having missed last round due to illness.

North Melbourne will also unveil three club and VFLW debutants all hailing from Tasmania.

Athletic, 23-year-old utility Mackie Sutcliffe has been included in the team after impressing for local club Glenorchy back in February when the Tasmanian club met the Roos in a practice match.

Joining her is Jasmyn Thompson and Tunisha Kikoak who have both been standouts for Coates Talent League side Tasmania Devils playing as a utility and key position player, respectively.
