Essendon will regain Jordan Ridley and Dyson Sharp for its Saturday afternoon clash against Melbourne at the MCG.

With the two inclusions, the Bombers have opted to omit Max Kondogiannis and Saad El-Hawli.

Saturday's game will honour the late great Neale Daniher, with each Club in commemorative guernseys. Be in your seats early for a special big screen tribute.
