The Western Bulldogs have suffered a huge blow before their match-of-the-round encounter with St Kilda at Etihad Stadium on Saturday night with star defender Lindsay Gilbee a late withdrawal due to personal reasons.
Dylan Addison will replace Gilbee in the Doggies’ selected side.
The change is a setback for the Dogs as they attempt to claim their first top-four scalp for the season having come agonisingly close against Geelong (two-point loss) and Collingwood (one-point) in recent weeks.
St Kilda has made no changes to the 22 it selected on Thursday night.
