MELBOURNEfc has welcomed a number of big names back for Friday night's clash against the Western Bulldogs in Bendigo.
After fielding two relatively young sides over the past two weeks, Melbourne is beginning to mould and shape its team for its AFL season opener against Hawthorn.
Full-back Nathan Carroll returns after serving his two match suspension handed down by the Club’s Leadership Group, and will add much needed stability and experience to the back half.
The other notable inclusions for this week include captain David Neitz, who has been held back over the last two games as a precaution with a slight knee complaint, and on-ballers Brock McLean, Simon Buckley and Jeff White.
