Footscray will have a distinct Western Bulldogs flavour when it takes on Geelong’s VFL side on Saturday, naming 18 senior listed players in their squad.

The near clean bill of health on the Bulldogs AFL list means a strong VFL side will travel to Simonds Stadium in the final practice match of the pre-season.

The Bulldogs midfield continues to be a strength for Footscray with Marcus Bontempelli, Josh Prudden, Christian Howard, Clay Smith and Alex Greenwood sharing the load.

Ayce Cordy is also expected to shoulder the ruck duties in tomorrow’s clash after VFL-listed Darcy Fort was rested from last week’s side.
