Melbourne team out to repeat last round’s performance over West Coast.
Assistant Coach Steven King previews the Western Bulldogs squad to face Sydney in round 19, including details on Liam Jones and Matthew Boyd as outs.
The Dogs earned a well-deserved 22-point victory over the West Coast Eagles at Etihad Stadium, which killed off their chances of making the AFL finals for this season.
While the Bulldogs are out of the running for the post-season themselves, if they continue to play as they did last round they could provide good nuisance value for other teams.
A pair of injuries has forced the Dogs to reshuffle their line-up with the absence of Jones and Boyd hurting their chances of back-to-back wins.
Sydney will be tough to beat after going on an impressive winning streak which has seen them move up into third on the ladder and building nicely for the playoffs.
Last week they out a dint in the title hopes of Richmond, with the Tigers no match for their reigning premiers, losing by 47 points.
