Western Bulldogs key forward Tom Boyd will miss the next fortnight due to a shoulder injury, coach Luke Beveridge confirmed on Friday.
Boyd injured his shoulder during the last quarter of the Bulldogs' win over Carlton last weekend.
"He had a similar episode on our community camp when we trained in Ballarat and he missed a few weeks and it's exactly the same thing," Beveridge said.
"But he came back from that and he was really strong, so we anticipate in a few weeks time he'll be ready to resurface at AFL level.
"He's had a strong few weeks but probably wasn't at the peak of his powers last week.
"We expect him to come back in to the team pretty quickly."
The Bulldogs play the Brisbane Lions at Etihad Stadium on Saturday night.
