Bulldogs youngster Sam Darcy headlines four inclusions ahead of a bumper clash against Fremantle at Marvel Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

The son-of-a-gun will run out for the first time in red, white and blue, becoming the third generation from the Darcy’s to represent the Club.

Adam Treloar is a welcome inclusion for the side after a week on the sidelines with a calf complaint, while Lachlan McNeil also returns to the 22.

Alex Keath is back after missing the fixture against Geelong last weekend.

Ryan Gardner comes out of the team with a calf injury, while Buku Khamis, Robbie McComb and Mitch Hannan have all been omitted.

Defender Caleb Daniel will play his 150th game for the red, white and blue, returning to the team last weekend after a layoff with a knee injury.

Stefan Martin, Laith Vandermeer, Toby McLean and Buku Khamis have been listed as emergencies.

One of the four will be confirmed as this week’s medical substitute an hour before the first bounce.

Fox Footy will broadcast the game live.
