BULLDOGS; FINAL
TEAMS AND MATCH PREVIEW By Ben Jensen GEELONG CATS V WESTERN BULLDOGS HARRY TAYLOR plays with 150th AFL match for Geelong against the Western Bulldogs on Sunday. Once more the changes are to do with ruckmen, Hamish McIntosh coming ino the side this week in place of Jed Bews. Dawson Simpson retains his spot on the side, the Cats again going in with the two specialist ruckmen plus utility Mark Blicavs. The Bulldogs brought in three players, Ryan Griffen, Jordan Roughead and first gamer Jack Redpath; dropping Sam Darley, Fletcher Roberts and Liam Jones. The match is being played in Geelong at the fairly unreasonable time of 4:40PM on Sunday afternoon; like the Thursday night Geelong game earlier in the season, thousands of seats held be reserved ticket holders are expected to go empty with Melbourne and Western District members likely to stay home. Earlier on Sunday the same two sides meet in the VFL.
