Essendon has named its VFL side to take on Casey this Sunday afternoon.

Sam Weideman comes back into the side after a three-week suspension, providing a massive boost to the Dons' defensive stocks.

Following back-to-back wins and three from their last four matches, the Bombers will be hoping to make it a hat-trick and secure a first win over the VFL Demons since 2015.

The VFL clash kicks off at 1:05pm, with streaming available via the AFL website.
