Sitting in third position on the VFL ladder, the Footscray Bulldogs will face second placed Essendon on Saturday afternoon at VU Whitten Oval.

With a spot in the top two up for grabs, the ‘Scray will be looking to claim their sixth consecutive win, after an impressive five-weeks of football.

In a double header at VU Whitten Oval, the VFLW side will run out at 4.00pm, following the Footscray v. Essendon VFL match.

The game will be streamed live via vfl.com.au and will also be available in the VFL app and on SEN 2 Digital.

For this round only, entry to both the VFL and VFLW matches will require a gold coin donation, rather than usual VFL ticket prices.
