After five consecutive losses, North Melbourne could opt to change things up again at the selection table. 

The Roos currently have the longest injury list in the AFL, making it difficult to make wholesale changes, but a few potential returns this weekend could be a welcome boost. 

North Media takes a look at those in the mix for the clash with Carlton. 

Majak Daw has strung a few weeks of training and practice games together, and could make his long-awaited return to the AFL. 

Jed Anderson was a late out two weeks ago against Essendon due to a quad injury, and will be tested before selection this week. If fit, he’s highly likely to return. 

Luke Davies-Uniacke is another to have put together a couple of weeks of consistent training, and he could be in line for his first appearance of the season. 

With North’s woes in front of goal, Nick Larkey will likely return as soon as he’s passed fit to play. 

A quad strain two weeks ago halted Will Walker’s progress, but he is a chance for selection if 100 per cent. 

Tom Murphy played in Round 1, and has been another player to have trained solidly and impressed in scratch matches. A defender by trade, Murphy has spent time in the midfield in recent weeks. 

A calf complaint saw Cam Zurhaar withdraw late from Saturday’s clash with the Tigers, but he will be hoping to make an immediate return to the Roos’ forward line. 

Lachie Hosie was named on the emergency list against the Tigers, and is another who could be in line for a call-up.
