The Footscray Bulldogs will take on Richmond at Punt Rd Oval in their final hit out before round one of the VFL season.

Acting as a curtain raiser before the AFL match on Saturday afternoon, the match will kick off at 11:00am, allowing fans to see the VFL side in action before watching the Western Bulldogs and Richmond match at the MCG at 1:45pm.

Draftees Bailey Dale and Toby McLean will be two of 16 AFL-listed players in the Footscray squad, and will look to continue their form from last week, managing seven goals between them.

Footscray have had preseason practice match victories over Werribee and Geelong, and had a six-point away loss to North Ballarat.
