Riley Garcia and Harvey Gallagher will return from their respective injuries in tomorrow afternoon’s VFL clash against Collingwood.

Garcia has overcome a groin complaint, while Gallagher (finger fracture) returns to the line-up after a short stint on the sidelines.

Dom Bedendo and Sam Darcy will continue to build on their match minutes too.

The three AFL emergencies in Buku Khamis, Jordon Sweet and Arthur Jones are also included, meaning up to 14 senior-listed Bulldogs could feature.

Footscray will look to make it five straight wins when they host Collingwood at Avalon Airport Oval in a double-header on Friday afternoon, ahead of the AFL match from 7.50pm at Marvel Stadium.

The VFL first bounce will be at 3.05pm AEST.
