The Western Bulldogs have confirmed two changes ahead of Sunday’s clash against Adelaide, with Tom Campbell and Tory Dickson named in the final side.
The pair replace Mitch Wallis and Tom Williams who have been omitted from the side that played Carlton last Sunday.
Dickson has regained his spot in the senior side after kicking 11 goals from three games at VFL level, with Assistant Coach Steven King noting the 26 year-old’s improvement also in the defensive side of his game.
“He’s had to earn his spot back – I think he kicked six last time against Adelaide,” King said.
“He’s a quality player, Tory, he just had to go back and rediscover some form and workrate which he’s done.”

Set for his second senior appearance of 2014, Tom Campbell is expected to play a dual role, rotating between a key forward and back-up ruck role to Will Minson.
“We thought it was important to give Will a bit of a chop out with Tommy,” King said.
“He can take a catch up forward and hopefully hold a few of their defenders accountable as well.”
Campbell kicked four goals in last year’s round 21 clash against the Crows at Etihad Stadium.
Lachie Hunter, Mitch Honeychurch and Fletcher Roberts have been named as emergencies for Sunday’s clash.
