The Western Bulldogs have endured a 38-point loss to Geelong in round seven of the VFLW at the weekend.
The Bulldogs were right in with a chance up until half-time, before a four-goal to none second-half blitz from the Cats resulted in a 1.1 (7) to 7.3 (45) defeat at VU Whitten Oval on Sunday morning.
Madison Katerelos was the Dogs’ sole goal-kicker, while Eliza Morrison and Eliza Vale finished the day with 19 disposals each.
Tahlia Meier was solid with 17 touches, while Mary Sandral finished with four marks and 10 disposals.
AFLW-listed Bulldog Amanda Ling showed plenty in her return, collecting 14 possessions and nine tackles.
The Dogs will next travel to ETU Stadium to take on Port Melbourne this Saturday afternoon.
