The senior teams for this weekend’s matches.
Northcote Park has recalled Brock McLennan and Mitch Papas for its clash with Heidelberg. The Cougars will be without Nick Carter who will represent Vic Metro in its clash with Vic Country, while both Michael O’Connell and Patrick O’Connell will miss.
Heidelberg has made only change, leaving out Isaac Edgar from its 23-man squad from last week.

North has included Jason Dean and forward John Green.
There are plenty of changes amongst the Division 3 teams with Heidelberg West and Watsonia making six and five changes to their teams respectively. It’s an important match at Heidelberg Park, where the Hawks can move equal on points with the fourth-placed Saints if they can secure victory.
