Dogs close to full strength

THE Western Bulldogs will have virtually a full list to select from for Saturday's qualifying final against Geelong at the MCG.
Midfielder Ryan Griffen's hamstring injury which has kept him on the sidelines for the past three weeks is now 100 per cent right while ruckman Ben Hudson is expected to come back into the side after he was a late withdrawal from the clash against Collingwood with hamstring tightness.
The only player unvavilable for selection is key defender Tom Williams who is tipped to make his return via the VFL after undergoing foot surgery a fortnight ago.
Meanwhile, Eade confirmed on-baller Daniel Cross pulled up well after his first match back from an ankle injury suffered in round 19 and said that forward Mitch Hahn wasn't in any doubt despite having scans on his foot yesterday.
"He's just got a sore plantar fascia. He snapped the other one in his foot last year. So it's no big drama, he'll be able to train and that's fine. It was just a precaution to see the extent of it, but it looks like it's OK," Eade said.
