Show Preview
Essendon top draft pick Elijah Tsatas will make his long awaited debut as the Bombers look to get their season back on track against West Coast at Marvel Stadium. Join The Roar for live scores from 1:45pm (AEST).
Having risen as high as fifth, three straight losses has seen the Bombers plummet down to 13th on the ladder: but despite that, consecutive games against the bottom two in the Eagles and North Melbourne gives them the chance to boost their poor percentage and surge back into finals calculations.
Tsatas’ inclusion, having starred at VFL level after his start to 2023 was wrecked by a shoulder injury, will give Bombers fans plenty extra to cheer as they look to run up a sizeable score against an Eagles outfit whose drought-breaking win over the Kangaroos last week has been soured by a likely season-ending injury to star midfielder Dom Sheed, among three more forced changes for this clash.
Venue: Marvel Stadium, Melbourne
First bounce: 1:45pm (AEST)
