Elle Bennetts will play her first AFLW game in over 12 months when she takes to the field tomorrow night against Port Adelaide.

Bennetts suffered an ACL injury in last year’s opening round, proving her fitness in time to be selected for Friday’s Dogs’ double-header.

She will start on the interchange bench, replacing Ellie Gavalas in the line-up.

The rest of the team remains unchanged.

The Bulldogs are looking for their first win of the 2024 campaign, after going down to the Giants in Week 1.

The first bounce will be at 4.30pm at the MCG tomorrow night, and broadcast via Fox Footy/Kayo Sports. 

Following the AFLW game, the AFL Bulldogs will meet Hawthorn in an Elimination Final from 7.40pm.
