THE WESTERN Bulldogs have dropped Caleb Daniel and Rory Lobb while recalling Jamarra Ugle-Hagan and Tom Liberatore, Hawthorn has regained Nick Watson and Richmond welcomes back gun defender Jayden Short.

Brisbane ruck Oscar McInerney and Fremantle sharpshooter Jye Amiss return from their respective concussions.

But the big news is again at the Bulldogs, where Daniel is out of the team again after winning a late reprieve in round seven. He is joined out of the team by Lobb (omitted), along with the injured Cody Weightman and suspended Rhylee West.
