The Western Bulldogs have named their 26-man squad to take on North Melbourne in Saturday afternoon’s practice match at IKON Park.
Liam Jones will make his return in the red, white and blue after making his way back to the Kennel during the off-season, while Rory Lobb takes his place in the forward line for the first time.
Oskar Baker is a chance to be included after being named on the bench.
In the first official hit-out of the pre-season campaign, Aaron Naughton, Jamarra Ugle-Hagan and Lobb make up an imposing forward line, with swingman Sam Darcy also named.
Arthur Jones gets his chance as a small forward, having yet to make his debut in the red, white and blue.
Rhylee West, Luke Cleary, Riley Garcia and Jordon Sweet have all been named as emergencies.
The match can be watched live via Fox Footy and Kayo.
