West Coast will be without young gun Tyrell Dewar for their monumental task of trying to take down ladder-leaders Collingwood at Marvel Stadium on Saturday evening.
Dewar will miss the clash with injury, joining co-captain Oscar Allen (knee/Achilles) as players to come out from their disappointing loss to Carlton before the bye.
Eagles coach Andrew McQualter resisted swinging the axe after they conceded 10 of the first 11 goals against the Blues less than a fortnight ago, with veteran wingman Jayden Hunt retaining his spot despite being subbed out with only two disposals to his name.
Debutant Jobe Shanahan has been named at centre-half-forward after The West Australian revealed he would replace Allen in attack despite spending the past few games in the WAFL down back.
Defender-turned-midfielder Brady Hough also returns after missing the loss to Carlton because of illness.
