Bulldogs to regain Hayden but miss Farmer

South Fremantle had the luxury of including exciting Fremantle defender Roger Hayden for tomorrow night's WAFL clash against port rival East Fremantle at Fremantle Oval.

Hayden was the only change to the side which fought back in the second half to overpower a gallant West Perth outfit by seven points at the same ground last Saturday.

The experienced 28-year-old was named in a forward pocket last night but is more likely to take his regular role in defence against the Sharks.

Hayden's former Dockers teammate Jeff Farmer failed to overcome a calf injury in time to take his place in the South Fremantle line-up.

East Fremantle too regained an AFL squad member, with West Coast defender Matt Spangher recalled to the league team at the expense of James Bayliss.

Both sides take winning form into tomorrow nights match, the Sharks bouncing back to snap a six-game losing streak when they beat Claremont by 28 points at East Fremantle Oval in the last round.
