Western Bulldogs prepared for MCG wildcard clash against Collingwood

Western Bulldogs midfielder Ed Richards says the team is prepared for their upcoming wildcard match against Collingwood at the MCG, despite facing several disadvantages. The eighth-placed Bulldogs must play at the MCG, the home ground of ninth-placed Collingwood, and will have one less day of rest than their opponents.

Richards expressed confidence regarding the venue and the team's ability to perform under pressure. There is also optimism regarding the fitness of spearhead Aaron Naughton, who is expected to play despite a recent ankle injury. While ruckman Tim English is also working toward playing, his availability remains less certain due to a knee issue.
