After umpiring 308 games, Scott Jeffery will finally officiate in his first Grand Final when the Western Bulldogs take on the Sydney Swans at the MCG on Saturday.

Jeffery is to be joined by Matt Stevic and Simon Meredith, veterans of four Grand Finals, as the chosen three-man umpiring team for the 2016 decider. 

Jeffery admitted he was racked by nerves when waiting for the call from umpires coach Hayden Kennedy earlier in the week.

"I missed the call initially, which was rather embarrassing," Jeffery said on Tuesday. 

"I sat around all morning waiting for it and then went to do my training and he'd rung.

"Hayden does all the hard calls so I thought he may have been ringing to say 'you've just missed out.' 

"It was a pretty special call... it's everything I've dreamed of and worked towards for a very long time." 

More to come.
