Nathan Lovett-Murray will make his return from injury on Sunday when he lines up for Essendon’s VFL team against Williamstown at Burbank Oval.

Lovett-Murray, who was taken to hospital following a domestic altercation, trained strongly with the team on Thursday afternoon proving his fitness to the coaching staff.

Also making a return from injury will be big man Scott Gumbleton, named to return from an ankle injury suffered against Sydney a fortnight ago.

Big man Tom Bellchambers has been named in the team after being rested last round and Will Hams will bolster the line up after being omitted from the AFL side.
