North’s match committee has shown faith in the team that got the job done against Gold Coast last week, naming an unchanged lineup.
The Roos will take on the Bulldogs in a top-of-the-table clash on Friday night at Etihad Stadium, with last week’s late inclusion Kayne Turner maintaining his spot in the side.
Brad Scott hinted Mason Wood would be in the mix for selection, but the versatile key-forward has been named among the emergencies, alongside Lachlan Hansen and Aaron Mullett.
Tickets are selling fast for the match, with North’s players excited for their first Friday night fixture of 2016.
“If we could break the record against the Bulldogs at Etihad (37,299), that would be fantastic,” Brent Harvey said.
“Friday night … there’s no excuse. Both teams are going pretty well, so hopefully the crowd gets out there and has a good look.”
