Experienced ruckman Stefan Martin is one of four inclusions for Sunday’s clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium.

Martin returns after missing the last four weeks with an Achilles tendon injury.

He is joined in the team by Mitch Hannan, Anthony Scott and Ryan Gardner.

Gardner will make his first AFL appearance since round three, when he sustained a shoulder injury. Hannan and Scott both come back in after missing last week’s loss to Melbourne.

Debutant Riley Garcia (concussion) comes out of the team, alongside last week’s medical sub Louis Butler.

Pat Lipinski, Jordon Sweet and Lachie McNeil also make way.

Butler, Lipinski, Sweet and Rhylee West have been named as the emergencies.

The Bulldogs will be chasing their first win in Western Australia since 2016 – and their first against the Dockers on their home turf since 2009. They are yet to taste success in four attempts at Optus Stadium.

However, they have won their past two matches against the Dockers – including in the final round of last year’s home-and-away season, to secure a finals berth.

The match will be broadcast live on Fox Footy.
