The Footscray Bulldogs will be looking to continue their unbeaten run when they meet the Northern Bullants at Preston City Oval on Saturday afternoon.

AFL-listed Bulldog Roarke Smith returns to the line-up, having been the travelling emergency for last week's AFL win.

He is joined by Josh Kellett and Tate Short, who will both feature in their first hit-outs for the year.

The Bulldogs comfortably accounted for the Gold Coast Suns (67 points) and the GWS Giants (72 points) in the opening two rounds.

Jamarra Ugle-Hagan (five goals) was dominant up forward last week, while Buku Khamis and Charlie Cormack (11 marks each) stood tall at the opposite end.

The match will be broadcast on Kayo, with score updates also available via @FootscrayVFL on Twitter.
