Draftee Keeley Hardingham will make her AFLW debut for the Western Bulldogs against the Giants in Canberra this weekend.

The 21-year-old was selected with Pick 48 last year following a breakout VFLW campaign in the red, white and blue.

The Colac local averaged 17.6 disposals and 22.2 hit outs from 14 games to be crowned the Club's best and fairest of the season. 

She was also named the Debbie Lee Rising Star as the most promising young player in the 2024 rebel VFLW season and finished runner-up in the Coaches’ MVP award.

The Dogs will go head-to-head with the Giants from 4:35pm AEST at Corroboree Group Oval Manuka on Saturday.

The remainder of the Bulldogs’ Round 5 team will be revealed at 6:20pm AEST tonight.
