GWS coach Adam Kingsley described the clash with the Bulldogs as their second biggest of the season, behind the Sydney derby.

“It’s a big game,” he said.

“Obviously they’ve had some really strong battles in the past, finals battles. I’d probably suggest outside of the Swans that this is the biggest game that our players play in.”

This match gets underway at 7.30pm AEST from Manuka Oval.

Watch it live on Fox Footy (channel 504) from 7.15pm AEST.
