ALEX Neal-Bullen has been named for Melbourne’s clash with Carlton, set to replace Kysaiah Pickett in the Dees’ final 22.
Earlier on Friday evening, the club announced that Pickett and Charlie Spargo had breached the AFL’s COVID-19 protocols, ruling the pair out of Saturday’s Round 2 game at Marvel Stadium.
Spargo, who had been named as emergency for the contest, will now miss the next two matches with suspension, while Pickett will be available for selection in Round 3.
On the back of these changes, Corey Wagner has been added to the emergency list alongside Michael Hibberd, James Jordon and Sam Weideman.
