Walyalup have finalised their team for Saturday’s Sir Doug Nicholls Round clash with Narrm at the MCG.
There are no changes to their starting 22 and Sam Sturt will be the substitute.
There are also no changes to Narrm’s team, and James Jordon has been named as their substitute.
Walyalup have made one change to the team that defeated Geelong, with Matthew Johnson coming in for the injured Michael Walters.
Narrm have two forced changes, with James Harmes and Tom Sparrow replacing the injured Clayton Oliver and the suspended Lachie Hunter.
It will be Sturt’s first appearance since he started against Brisbane in round seven before being substituted off.
The forward has played three games this season, highlighted by his two goals against the Western Bulldogs.
The substitute is a tactical option for coaches in 2023, meaning an injury is not required to activate the player.
Walyalup will wear a clash version of their 2023 Indigenous jumper, which was designed by Carly Grey in collaboration with Alex Pearce.
Bouncedown for the clash is at 2.10pm EST (12.10pm WST) and will be broadcast live into WA on Channel 7 and Fox Footy and can be streamed on Kayo.
