Werribee is set to wrap up its schedule of four practice matches this weekend, with a return to the western suburbs to face Footscray this Saturday.

Just one week out from round one, Werribee have a chance to carry a three-game win streak into the 2024 Smithy’s VFL season when they take on the Bulldogs at Whitten Oval, with the first bounce at 1:00PM Saturday.

With the Bulldogs simultaneously kicking off their AFL season this weekend; the game will provide the chance for Werribee to test itself against some AFL-listed opposition as the team prepares for what on paper appears to be a challenging opening few rounds of the Smithy's VFL season. 

With fans showing out in force to the opening three practice matches and already carrying on that strong show of support from the 2023 season, football manager Ash Collins has encouraged fans to come down to Whitten Oval to support the team in this final dress rehearsal; “This weekend brings a great final test before the season. Entry to Whitten Oval will be free, and we would love to see as many of you Werribee fans there as possible”.
