The Western Bulldogs have made two changes to their side for Saturday’s 2021 Toyota AFL Grand Final against Melbourne at Optus Stadium.
Key back Alex Keath has proved his fitness after missing the prelim against Port Adelaide with hamstring tightness.
Electric forward Cody Weightman has also been selected, after being sidelined as per concussion protocols.
Ryan Gardner and Laitham Vandermeer make way, along with activated medical substitute, Anthony Scott.
The trio plus Ed Richards have been named as emergencies however, with one to be confirmed as the Grand Final medical substitute an hour before the first bounce.
The team features nine Bulldogs who took part in the drought-breaking 2016 flag, with both Taylor Duryea (2014, 2015) and Adam Treloar (2018) having also played in Grand Finals prior.
The match will begin at 5.15pm local time, and be broadcast live on Channel 7.
