The Western Bulldogs have revealed their team for Friday night’s blockbuster against the Geelong Cats at GMHBA Stadium.
It will be an unchanged starting 22 from the Bulldogs’ win a fortnight ago against Fremantle.
Ruckman Stefan Martin retains his place in the team, after collecting a minor shoulder injury in the win against the Dockers before the bye.
Rhylee West, who replaced Martin as the medical sub during that game, makes way from the squad.
The Bulldogs have opted against recalling experienced defender Easton Wood.
Wood has been named as an emergency after overcoming a hamstring injury, alongside vice-captain Mitch Wallis, Toby McLean and ruckman Jordon Sweet.
The match will mark premiership player Lachie Hunter’s 150th game at AFL level.
Hunter was a father-son draftee back in 2012, selected with pick 49 by the Bulldogs.
The game will be broadcast live on Channel 7 and Fox Footy.
It will be a VFL-AFL double-header at GMHBA Stadium on Friday night, with the Footscray Bulldogs taking on Geelong at 4.10pm.
