North Melbourne has made five inclusions to its squad for the match against West Coast on Sunday.
Delivered by Allied Express, the Roos’ 25-man lineup features the skipper Andrew Swallow, named in the centre for the Blundstone Arena clash.

A late withdrawal last week, Swallow will be vital to North’s chances.
Majak Daw’s good form in the VFL has seen him rewarded with a call-up; the ruck/forward having booted five goals last week and 17 for the season so far.
Also in the mix for the final 22 is Scott McMahon, who has been emergency over the past two weeks.
Ben Jacobs’ 32-disposal haul at North Ballarat clearly impressed the coaches, earning him another chance, while Mason Wood could be in line for another game after amassing 17 disposals and five marks for Werribee.
With the squad still to be trimmed by three on Friday, Luke McDonald and Kayne Turner are early casualties, both omitted from the side.
Robin Nahas is set to play his 100th game on Sunday, named in the forward pocket.
