The Western Bulldogs have made one change ahead of a thrilling clash against the Swans at Marvel Stadium on Thursday night.

Coming up against the ladder leaders, Anthony Scott will suit up in the red, white and blue for the first time this season.

The utility has impressed at VFL level and returns to the line-up for the first time since 2023, with Luke Cleary dropping out of the squad.

Scott joins Caleb Daniel, Riley Garcia, Harvey Gallagher and Joel Freijah on the interchange bench, with one set to be named the sub an hour before the bounce.

Rory Lobb, Luke Cleary and Ryley Sanders have been named as the emergencies.

The Bulldogs will wear an Indigenous guernsey designed by Tarni Jarvis (Djab Wurrong, Kirrae Wurrong and Peak Wurrong) to mark the second week of Sir Doug Nicholls Round.

The fixture will commence at 7.30pm AEST and be broadcast live on Channel 7, Fox Footy and Kayo.
