The North Melbourne Tasmanian Kangaroos' pre-season ramps up when they take on the Western Bulldogs in an official AFLW practice match at Arden Street on Saturday.

Entry will be free and the match will be live streamed on NMFC.com.au and the North Melbourne Official App.

The practice match will give many fans their first glimpse of the Kangaroos' promising new recruits.

New signing Kate Shierlaw impressed in the side's tall forward line during last weekend's match simulation against Essendon at Windy Hill, while Eliza Shannon and Ruby Tripodi were also influential.

The practice match will incorporate the recently introduced rule adjustments, which includes longer quarters, interchange caps, adjustments to boundary throw ins and a cap on the use of runners.

The Kangaroos launch their premiership campaign against St Kilda at Hobart's Blundstone Arena in Round 1 on Sunday, September 3.
