The Western Bulldogs have made one change ahead of their Saturday night clash against Carlton under the roof at Marvel Stadium.
As announced earlier today, James O’Donnell will be handed his maiden red, white and blue guernsey, replacing the injured Adam Treloar (hamstring).
O’Donnell was only signed as a Category B Rookie last month, highlighting his rapid rise from a former fast bowler to AFL debutant.
Jamarra Ugle-Hagan has also been given the green light to play, after being tested this week following an adductor injury sustained in round eight.
Lachie McNeil also comes out of the starting 22 after being activated as the substitute against the Giants.
The four emergencies are McNeil, Mitch Hannan, Tim O’Brien and Jordon Sweet, with one to be confirmed as this week’s substitute an hour before the first bounce.
The Bulldogs will be looking to make it four straight wins when they meet the Blues.
The game will begin at 7.30pm AEST on Saturday night and be broadcast live via Fox Footy and Kayo Sports.
All Public GA and reserved seat tickets for Saturday’s clash between Carlton and the Western Bulldogs at Marvel Stadium are now exhausted.
