Forward Will Snelling is Essendon's only inclusion for its round 22 clash with North Melbourne on Saturday.

The Dons have included Snelling in place of the injured Jye Caldwell, with the midfielder unable to prove his fitness after being subbed out of last week's match with a hip injury. 

Round 21 substitute Alwyn Davey Jnr has come out of the side, but remains on the emergency list.

Joining Davey Jnr on standby is big-bodied midfielder Will Setterfield, defender Kaine Baldwin and key utility Sam Weideman.
