A host of returning stars headlines the team changes ahead of a round 11 clash against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium on Saturday night.

Tim English and Taylor Duryea have recovered from their bouts of the flu, while Cody Weightman returns after three weeks out with a broken collarbone.

Bailey Smith will miss the trip West with illness, while Zaine Cordy and Luke Cleary have been omitted from the side that defeated Gold Coast last weekend.

Both English and Jordon Sweet will be deployed as ruckman for the clash, teaming up for the first time in red, white and blue.

The emergencies are Josh Schache, Dom Bedendo, Arthur Jones and Luke Cleary.

A player will be confirmed as the medical sub an hour before the first bounce.

Fox Footy will broadcast the game live.
