An all-star line-up is heading to Tasmania this weekend for the Bendigo Bombers match. Mark McVeigh returns after four weeks on the sidelines with a hamstring injury and Damian Cupido will get another hit-out after kicking two goals last weekend in Bendigo's 77-point win.

Mark Alvey and Ted Richards come back into the Bendigo side after making way for Mark and Jason Johnson in the seniors. Along with Alvey and Richards, Aaron Henneman's inclusion in the team is sure to strengthen Bendigo's chance against third placed Tasmania. All three are experienced players and should be key playmakers this weekend.

Jason Laycock returns to his home state and will be keen to impress after a quiet game last week. Laycock will have good support in the ruck from Tristan Cartledge who returns to the team after one week on the sidelines.

Jobe Watson provided headaches for the Springvale midfield last week. The 18-year-old was a ball magnet and finished with 28 possessions. His work around stoppages at ground level helped set-up a number of Bendigo's forward attacks. Watson was unlucky to miss senior selection and will be hoping for another big game.

Bendigo will travel to Tasmania tomorrow morning in preparation for its match against Tasmania at Bellerive Oval on Sunday.
