The WAFL Eagles have made seven changes to their line-up for Saturday’s crunch clash against Subiaco at Sullivan Logistics Stadium.

The Eagles (8-7) are only percentage behind the Lions in fifth spot with finals at stake with only three rounds to play.

Midfield star Harry Schoenberg has bolstered the team after missing last round’s upset over reigning premiers South Fremantle due to illness.

He is joined in the line-up by AFL-listed trio Ryan Maric, Harvey Johnson and Sandy Brock, while Archie Watt returns for his first game since round six.

Meanwhile, Naitanui Academy product Garrison Kenh will make his WAFL Eagles debut after a solid performance for WA at the under-18s national championships recently.

After starring last week against the Bulldogs, half-back Josh Lindsay and tough forward-mid Tom Gross have been called up to face Collingwood.

Father-son prospect Harper Banfield’s two-game stint has ended due to school football duties, while Jake Miles-Wrency will miss with a calf issue.

Thomas Edwards-Baldwin (hip), Jack Walsh (omitted) and James Ewing (ankle) have also gone out of the 23.

Former West Perth premiership player Sasha Kernutt will play his 50th WAFL game on Saturday, and has made an immediate impact with 12 goals in 13 games since joining the Eagles this season.

Tyrell Dewar will play his 50th match for the WAFL Eagles.

Saturday’s match starts at 2.30pm and will be broadcast on 7plus.
