The 199cm Queenslander has struggled with injury this season, failing to play a senior game after debuting against Geelong in Round 11 last year.
Western Bulldogs Medical Services Manager Andrew McKenzie said that Mulligan will need an extended period in rehabilitation to overcome his Achilles injury.
“James’ Achilles hasn’t settled as expected.
“We’ve taken the approach to spend more time rehabilitating and re-strengthening the area,” McKenzie said.
