Western Bulldogs and St Kilda go head-to-head on Saturday in what should be an enthralling NAB Cup final clash at the Etihad Stadium.
The Bulldogs will be without skipper Brad Johnson as he is recovering from a leg injury, they will be led by Daniel Giansiracusa in Johnson’s absence.
Promising Bulldog rookie Brodie Moles has also been given a chance to continue to push for elevation to the senior list after an impressive pre-season campaign.
The Saints are taking this final very seriously and have named a very strong squad, captain Nick Riewoldt has been recalled, as well as Brendon Goddard and Jason Blake, who pulled out late on last weekend, as the Saints hope experience will count for a lot.
The last time these two did battle was back in September in the Preliminary Finals at the MCG, where the Saints edged out the Bulldogs 60-53 to reach the AFL Grand Final, before succumbing to the Geelong Cats 80-68.
