OUTS – Johnson (susp.), Windsor (inj.), Langford (omitted)

MELBOURNE will welcome back Charlie Spargo, Daniel Turner and Taj Woewodin into its team as it prepares to face North Melbourne on Sunday. 

Spargo’s return was confirmed earlier today with the Demon set to play his first AFL game in 381 days, having been sidelined with an Achilles injury.

Turner will also make a return to the AFL side after missing Round 1 due to illness. The young Demon will add further height and aerial strength to Melbourne’s forward line. 

The final addition in Woewodin will provide explosive speed and clean skills to the team as they look to collect their first win of the 2025 season.

Caleb Windsor will miss this week’s match due to injury, while Aidan Johnson will complete his one-week suspension.

Harvey Langford has been omitted from the final side but has been named as an emergency alongside Bailey Laurie and Jed Adams.

The Dees will face the Roos at Marvel Stadium, with the first bounce scheduled for 3:20pm. Grab a ticket here or tune into the match via the Seven Network, Fox Footy or Kayo Sports.
