There’s opportunity and exposure aplenty in this week’s Senior side, with a number of spots up for grabs for those prepared to take their opportunity.
Notable additions to the squad include well-performed Vic Development league players Billy Murphy, Xavier Dimasi and Zach Monkhorst, who all impressed last week and could make their first appearances for the Seniors this season should they win selection.
The Magpies have started the season with one win from five outings and remain winless since round one, falling to Werribee by eleven points last week. Nevertheless, they will present a stern test for Chris Newman’s side.
Action gets underway at 3:45pm this Saturday afternoon at Collingwood’s Holden Centre. Final teams will be announced approximately one hour prior to the bounce.
