No new injuries plus a week of resting and recharging has left North Melbourne with a relatively healthy list to choose from for its clash with the Crows on Saturday.

Damaging onballer Luke Davies-Uniacke has recovered from a hamstring strain and is likely to rejoin the starting team.

The No.9 began the season in explosive fashion but has been sidelined since suffering the injury against the Power at Blundstone Arena in Round 9.

Fellow midfielder Darcy Tucker put forward a strong case for a recall in the reserves' 30-point over Coburg in Round 13.

The 26-year-old was omitted from the AFL side in the lead-up to its Round 14 hitout with the Bulldogs, but responded emphatically with 40 disposals, two goals and seven marks to claim the maximum coaches' votes.

Veteran Aaron Hall will have caught the match committee's eyes with 39 touches and 10 inside 50s against Coburg. He offers an injection of pace for interim coach Brett Ratten to consider.

Defender Flynn Perez (29 disposals, seven marks, seven rebound 50s) and first-year forward Cooper Harvey (two goals, six tackles) were also among the best in the VFL clash with the Lions.

Perez's last appearance in the seniors came in Round 9, when he picked up a concussion which ruled him out the following week. Harvey, taken with pick No.56 in 2022 draft, continues to knock on selectors' doors as he pushes for an AFL debut.

Josh Goater has been given the green light to play his first game since mid-May after recovering from a moderate-grade MCL issue, while ruck Tristan Xerri (28 hitouts, 16 disposals, six clearances) was impactful against Coburg in his first appearance since undergoing ankle surgery earlier in the year.

Xerri is expected to continue playing in the reserves this weekend, as his game-time gradually increases.
