North Melbourne has made four changes to its VFL side ahead of its clash against Coburg at Arden Street Oval on Saturday.

Tasmanian youngster Geordie Payne and Western Australian ruck-forward Brynn Teakle will both feature as Roos for the first time since being taken in the mid-season rookie draft with picks one and 15 respectively.

A late out in Round 9 due to Achilles tightness, veteran Hugh Greenwood also returns to the side, and VFL-listed defender Coby James rounds out the inclusions.

New draftees on what they hope to bring to the club

Mid-season draftees Geordie Payne and Brynn Teakle speak to reporters on Tuesday

North Melbourne will be without key defender Kallan Dawson, who has been selected to play AFL, and livewire forward Sam Lowson (injured).

Midfielder Cooper Lord exits the team after becoming a Carlton player in the last week's mid-season draft, while Kade De La Rue is the fourth out.

The Roos are fresh off a Round 10 bye and will be out to claim their first win since edging past Brisbane back in Round 3.

The Roo Shop will also be open at Arden Street Oval on Saturday between 11am and 3pm.
