The Bulldogs have made three changes for their Round 16 clash against North Melbourne at Marvel Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
A pair of key forwards headline the inclusions, with Aaron Naughton and Sam Darcy both coming into the side.
Naughton hasn’t played since injuring his knee a month ago during a narrow loss to Sydney, while Darcy was suspended for two weeks after a hit on Brayden Maynard.
Oskar Baker also makes a welcome return to the 23 after a solid month of VFL football.
Anthony Scott, Buku Khamis and Caleb Daniel have all been omitted and will be the emergencies for the fixture.
Baker joins Laith Vandermeer, Rory Lobb, Darcy and Joel Freijah on the interchange bench, with one player set to be named sub one hour prior to the start of the game.
Fresh off a two-year contract extension, Rhylee West retains his spot in the forward line following a four-goal performance in Round 14.
The game will begin at 1.45pm AEST and will be broadcast live on Fox Footy and Kayo.
The Bulldogs reached the bye round at 7-7 and can retain a positive ratio with victory over the Kangaroos.
