FOUR days out from Melbourne’s blockbuster ANZAC Day Eve match against Richmond, the Demons have locked in their 26-man squad.

It sees the return of three Demons from injury with Max Gawn (knee), Jake Lever (ankle) and Michael Hibberd (Achilles) all named in the extended line-up following time on the sidelines.  

Bailey Laurie, Luke Dunstan and Daniel Turner have also been named in the squad, with the final team to be announced on Saturday 22 April at 4:30pm.

Melbourne was forced to make one change from Round 5, with Charlie Spargo sustaining a concussion in Adelaide, while Jake Melksham and Adam Tomlinson have both been omitted from the Dees’ side.
