The Western Bulldogs are set to take on Carlton on Friday 7 March 2014 in a pre-season practice match at Visy Park, the AFL announced today. 

The clash rounds out three pre-season games for the Bulldogs before the home and away season begins, in an altered NAB Challenge format.

Clashes against St Kilda (Wednesday 19 February 2014) and Fremantle (Wednesday 26 February 2014) at Etihad Stadium are also scheduled to form the Bulldogs pre-season campaign.

The Bulldogs will line up against West Coast Eagles in round one of season proper on Sunday 23 March 2014 in Perth.
