Essendon has named its VFL side to meet North Melbourne in Round 11.
The Bombers are bolstered by the inclusions of eight AFL-listed players into the side, including their top-five pick Elijah Tsatas in his first appearance for the club.
Mid-season draftee Jaiden Hunter will don the sash for the first time, while defender Jake Kelly will make his return after missing three weeks through concussion symptoms.
The first bounce is on Sunday, June 4th at 1:35pm, taking place at the NEC Hangar.
The match can be streamed via the AFL app and AFL.com.au.
