Preview
A massive game for both sides, with many implications for the top eight to come from the result. If the Bulldogs can claim the victory, they will draw level on points with Port Adelaide, and potentially a number of other teams. What happens on the weekend could very well decide what the Dogs’ plans are for September.
The Power weren’t entirely convincing against Collingwood last week and will have just as much to play for as Luke Beveridge’s side. Keep an eye out for Paddy Ryder who could have a huge game against a side who struggles somewhat in the ruck.
The Dogs were hitting some form before last week, look for them to bounce back and claim a big win.
