The VFLW Bulldogs have made a handful of changes to their side ahead of Saturday’s round nine match against Geelong at Deakin Uni.

Isabella Grant and Isabelle Pritchard are two of 10 AFLW-listed players to feature, replacing Ellyse Gamble and Elisabeth Georgostathis in the line-up.

Annabel Strahan is a late inclusion, coming in for Eleanor Brown (illness), with Jess Fitzgerald added as a third emergency. 

Jemima Woods will return, having missed the week prior with NAB League duties.

Western Jets products Caitlin Sargent and Trinity Skenderis will make their debuts.

AFLW Bulldogs Dani Marshall and Nell Morris-Dalton have retained their spots, after combining for four goals and 11 marks in last weekend’s win.

The VFLW Bulldogs currently sit just outside finals contention in seventh spot.
