North Melbourne has made three additions to its squad for Sunday’s clash against Carlton.
With the final 22 to be confirmed on Friday, the Roos have welcomed back Trent Dumont, Jed Anderson and Braydon Preuss on an extended interchange bench.
Dumont missed last week’s match due to concussion, but could return for his 29th career game on Sunday at Etihad Stadium.
Anderson was also sidelined against the Demons due to a foot injury, with the forward/midfielder sure to be pushing his case for a call-up at training on Friday.
Preuss has been in fine form at VFL level in recent weeks, and would provide a valuable chop-out in the ruck for fellow big man Todd Goldstein.
