Jarrad Waite is set to return to the North Melbourne team for the clash against St Kilda, after overcoming hip soreness.

The key-forward proved his fitness at training on Wednesday, and will replace Majak Daw in the Roos’ 22.

Waite has played just one game since Round 12, but will bolster North’s front six alongside Drew Petrie and Ben Brown.

Brent Harvey has been named on a half-forward flank for his record-breaking 427th game.

Youngster Declan Mountford is on the emergency list and waiting in the wings, alongside Daw and Corey Wagner.
