WEST COAST has dropped star midfielder Dom Sheed again as the Eagles recall exciting first-year forward Liam Ryan for his first Western Derby.
Sheed is one of three Eagle omissions, along with Jack Petruccelle and Jake Waterman, from the side that lost to North Melbourne last week.
The Eagles had already confirmed the inclusion of Luke Shuey and Lewis Jetta.
Fremantle has made five changes for Sunday afternoon's derby with Hayden Ballantyne and Matt Taberner among the inclusions and Cam Sutcliffe is the only forced change.

Gold Coast coach Stuart Dew has reacted savagely to last week's loss to Carlton, dropping star midfielder Jarryd Lyons for the second time this year ahead of Sunday's clash against Melbourne.
"JL's an interesting one, he's found a lot of the ball recently but also we need him to cover the ground really well and we thought on the MCG we needed a little bit more run," Dew told the Suns website.
Pearce Hanley will make his first appearance since round three.
Melbourne's forced change sees Aaron vandenBerg playing his first game of the season in place of Jake Melksham, who suffered a hamstring injury.
Jacob Weitering has a corked quad and will miss Carlton's contest with Greater Western Sydney at Etihad Stadium with Cameron O'Shea coming in.
The Giants have brought in last year's No.11 NAB AFL Draft pick Aiden Bonar for his AFL debut, with Matt de Boer and Jeremy Cameron who is returning from suspension.
Injured trio Dylan Shiel, Tim Taranto and Sam Reid go out of the side
