WEST Coast will change more than a quarter of its side for tomorrow night's blockbuster against Hawthorn, with skipper Darren Glass and vice-captain Beau Waters among six inclusions.

Forward duo Mark LeCras and Josh Kennedy have also been named to return to the side, along with Bradd Dalziell and Pat McGinnity, who will play his first game of the season.

Glass (hip), LeCras (arm) and Kennedy (calf) all missed the Eagles' win over St Kilda before last weekend's bye, while Waters will make just his fifth appearance after overcoming a quad injury.

Veteran Adam Selwood will miss the Etihad Stadium clash with a back complaint, with goalsneak Josh Hill also absent with a hamstring issue. Ashton Hams, Brad Sheppard, Jacob Brennan and Jamie Cripps have all been dropped.

The Hawks have made just the one change in pursuit of an 11th straight win, with Isaac Smith (calf) replaced by Shane Savage.

Meanwhile, Fremantle is set to welcome back improved forward Michael Walters for its clash with North Melbourne at Patersons Stadium on Sunday.

Walters has been named in an extended squad of 25 alongside Matt Taberner and Tom Sheridan. The squad will be cut by three tomorrow.

The Dockers will be looking to make it eight straight matches without a loss when they take on the struggling Kangaroos, who have added five players to their extended squad.

Liam Anthony and Levi Greenwood headline the potential inclusions, with defender Scott McMahon (ankle) and youngster Will Sierakowski (omitted) making way.
