The VFLW Bulldogs have recalled Courtney Ugle and Jaime Henry for the Friday night clash against Port Melbourne.

Ugle will start on the half-back flank, while Henry will start on the bench.

The duo are the only changes, with Steph Asciak (managed) and Mia-Rae Clifford (unavailable) making way.

Ellie Blackburn is one of seven senior-listed players taking to the field, as the VFLW team looks to record its third consecutive win led by captain Dom Carbone.

The first bounce will be at 5.05pm at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne tomorrow night.

The match will be live-streamed via afl.com.au/vflw for those who can’t make it, with game-day updates also available via @BulldogsW on X (Twitter).

The Bulldogs currently sit half a game clear in sixth position on the ladder, at the halfway point of the season.

The top six will qualify for a four-week finals series, culminating in the Grand Final on Sunday 21 July.
