Matt Suckling

[5] Omitted the next week because of injury, Suckling was unable to break back into the side; he was listed as an emergency later in the year.

[citation needed] During the 2013 NAB Cup pre season competition Suckling tore his anterior cruciate ligament whilst playing against Richmond.

Suckling missed the entire 2013 season due to the injury that required a full knee reconstruction.

[citation needed] Suckling returned to the side in 2014, and would go on to claim his elusive premiership medal in the club's 2014 Grand Final win.

Suckling became a regular in the Bulldogs' backline but in 2018 after playing 11 games he suffered an achilles injury ultimately ended his season.
