North Melbourne v Essendon
Sunday, July 18 - 12.35pm AEST
Metricon Stadium
North Melbourne will be forced into at least one change for its clash with Essendon this weekend, with Ben Cunnington opting to stay at home for family reasons.
An extended interchange has been named due for the Sunday fixture, with Atu Bosenavulagi, Charlie Lazzaro, Lachie Young, Kyron Hayden and Tom Campbell all added to the match day squad.
Lazzaro will be hoping to be named in the 22 after sitting out last week’s clash as medical substitute, while Hayden will look to reclaim his place after being a late out against the Western Bulldogs two weeks ago.
Young or Bosenavulagi could come into the side and provide pace and versatility in the wide areas of the ground, while Campbell has been a dominant force in the ruck at VFL level.
