Essendon has made four changes to its line-up ahead of its clash with Brisbane at the MCG on Saturday afternoon.
Two changes were forced after Shaun McKernan and Kobe Mutch suffered hamstring injuries in the Bombers’ impressive defeat of Melbourne last week.
Experienced talls Cale Hooker and Mitch Brown, tough on-baller David Myers and versatile utility Mason Redman have been added to the side.
Young Bombers Aaron Francis and Matt Guelfi have been omitted from the team.
