At least one change will be made for Sunday’s clash with St Kilda at Marvel Stadium.
Five players have been added to an extended Western Bulldogs interchange bench, with Toby McLean (hamstring) the confirmed out.
Among the five potential inclusions are midfielder Tom Liberatore and defender Caleb Daniel, who are pushing to return from knee and hamstring injuries respectively.
Veteran defender Dale Morris, yet-to-debut draftee Rhylee West, and midfielder-forward Bailey Dale are also in the extended squad.
Star midfielder Marcus Bontempelli has been named at full-forward, and is expected to train on Friday to prove his fitness to tackle the Saints, after sustaining an ankle injury in last week’s win against Melbourne.
The Bulldogs will name a team of 22 at 5pm on Friday.
