It’s do-or-die time for the last-place Western Bulldogs, as they look to get their season back on track against the GWS Giants at Marvel Stadium. Join The Roar for live scores from 7:50pm (AEST).
It’s been a season to forget so far for the Western Bulldogs, who sit anchored to the bottom of the ladder after two miserable performances. Back in March, they were slaughtered by the Magpies to the tune of 52 points, before putting in another dismal display against the Saints last week. Tipped as a clear-cut finals participator and top-four smokey, the Dogs need to get cracking.
They’ll be up against their arch-rivals in the GWS Giants who, after a solid win over Geelong in Round 1, couldn’t keep up with North Melbourne last week in a shock 20-point loss. While the margin wasn’t reflective of how close the contest was, they were often outmuscled and will need to turn that around for a fixture where high physicality has often been a spectacle.
Last year’s meetings between these sides were almost complete opposites. The Bulldogs crushed the Giants by 61 points in Round 22 but, in an elimination final just three weeks later, GWS got revenge by 58 points at the same venue. The Giants have prevailed in two of the three encounters between these sides at Docklands.
