The Western Bulldogs have made one change for their round two AFLW match, with Elisabeth Georgostathis lining up for her first match of AFLW Season Seven.

Georgostathis missed the opening round through injury, but has been cleared to play and will start on the bench against Port Adelaide.

She comes in at the expense of Nell Morris-Dalton.

Round one debutants Rylie Wilcox, Heidi Woodley and Daisy Bateman have retained their spots, set to start on the wing, half-forward flank and interchange respectively.

Gabby Newton will again line up at full-forward, while Katie Lynch and Eleanor Brown will hold down the fort as full-backs.

Alice Edmonds will start as the number one ruck, alternating with Celine Moody who will start on the bench.

The match will mark the first meeting between the two sides, in expansion side Port Adelaide’s first home AFLW game.

The first bounce will be at 1.10pm ACST (1.40pm AEST) at Alberton Oval tomorrow afternoon.

Fox Footy will broadcast the match live, with score updates also available via @BulldogsW on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
