Sydney Swans vs Western Bulldogs Preview
Finals ambitions go on the line as Sydney hosts the Western Bulldogs under Friday night lights at the SCG. The Swans snapped a three-game slide with a gritty 19-point upset over Port Adelaide, overcoming wasteful finishing to notch a crucial win. The returns of Errol Gulden, Tom Papley, and Joel Amartey injected much-needed energy, with Gulden particularly impressive in his first game of 2025.
The Bulldogs, meanwhile, roared back into the top eight after a commanding 79-point demolition of Richmond. Marcus Bontempelli was unstoppable with 36 touches and three goals, while Sam Darcy enjoyed a breakout showing, booting five majors.
While the Dogs cruised to victory in their last visit to the SCG, they’ll be without Adam Treloar this time around due to another calf setback. With both clubs battling for September relevance, this Round 16 opener promises to be a fierce, finals-shaping encounter.
