A new-look Essendon outfit will be hopeful of breaking an eight-year drought in western Sydney on Saturday evening, as they take on a teetering GWS outfit at ENGIE Stadium.
The Giants (3-5, 88.2%) will play hosts coming off a six-day break, and will be without a quartet of key players — namely Jesse Hogan — for the match due to injury.

Meanwhile, the Bombers (1-7, 70.2%) have made a whopping six changes to their starting side for the interstate trip, and haven’t won away against the ‘Orange Tsunami’ since Round 10, 2018.
After being managed last week, Darcy Parish returns to the fold for Brad Scott alongside the likes of Mason Redman and Archie Perkins, while Nick Bryan returns for his first AFL game since Gather Round last year in Adelaide, where he ruptured his ACL.
