Western Bulldogs captain Marcus Bontempelli will play his 200th AFL game as his side looks to push back into the top eight against Hawthorn on Saturday.
The Dogs (3-3, 90.3%) smashed Fremantle last week to record their third win from their last four games, recovering from a spluttering start to the season. Coach Luke Beveridge was happy enough to label Bontempelli “incredibly influential” and “unique” on the eve of his milestone game, even comparing him to Carlton legend Koutoufides.
The Hawks (1-5, 64.5%) came desperately close to defeating Adelaide last week before falling short of their second win of the season.
