Bulldogs midfielder Jack Macrae headlines a pair of inclusions for Sunday’s clash against West Coast at Marvel Stadium on Sunday.

Senior Coach Luke Beveridge confirmed the three-time All Australian would be in the starting 22, rewarded for his dominant 46-disposal performance for Footscray last week.

Taylor Duryea comes into the side for his first game of the 2024 season, replacing the injured Ed Richards.

Oskar Baker has earned a promotion from the sub vest and will play, with the winger recording 19 touches and three goals off the bench against Gold Coast.

Nick Coffield (shoulder) and Ed Richards (concussion) will miss the clash due to injury.

Sam Darcy, Caleb Poulter and Caleb Daniel join Macrae and Duryea on the bench with one of the five set to be named sub an hour before the bounce.

Bouncedown will be 1pm local time, with the game live streamed on Fox Footy and Kayo.

Bulldogs’ fans will be welcomed back to Marvel Stadium for the first time in 2024 on Easter Sunday, with the red, white and blue travelling to Ballarat for last week’s victory.
