- West Coast loses patience with midfielder Chris Masten
- Bombers James Kelly and Darcy Parish out with injury
- Collingwood adds father/son Callum Brown to squad
WEST Coast coach Adam Simpson has made a statement at selection after back-to-back defeats, dropping established midfielder Chris Masten for Saturday's clash against Gold Coast.
The Eagles have made three changes for the trip to Metricon Stadium, recalling defender Eric Mackenzie for his first game since round one, as well as midfielder Luke Shuey and forward Mark LeCras.
Star forward Josh Kennedy is unavailable because of a calf injury and youngster Malcolm Karpany also makes way, with Masten omitted for the first time in Simpson's reign as coach.
Both Masten and Karpany have been named as emergencies, with doubt remaining over the fitness of both Shuey (calf) and LeCras (hip).
