The Brisbane Lions have made one change ahead of Thursday afternoon’s VFL game against the Footscray Bulldogs at Marvel Stadium 

Deven Robertson, who was the tactical substitute last week against Melbourne in the AFL, will return to the VFL side this week. 

The Lions will look to continue the good form shown across the practice matches and Round 1 with a strong performance against the Bulldogs. 

Ryan Lester will again captain the side after leading the Lions back six, which was under immense pressure in the dying stages of last weekend’s victory. 

Brisbane Lions fans are encouraged to get down the Marvel Stadium for the first bounce at 3:45pm AEDT.
