West Coast needs victory over North Melbourne, and for either one of Richmond or Geelong to lose to either Adelaide or Sydney respectively later in the weekend, in order to keep its slim hopes of a double chance alive.

North Melbourne has made two changes of its own for the club's final game of the year, with defensive duo Tom Murphy and Sam Durdin included in the side.

Young midfielder Aiden Bonar is injured, having battled a shoulder complaint heading into last Saturday's defeat to Fremantle, while uncontracted forward Mason Wood has been dropped for the third time this season as the Kangaroos aim to avoid an eighth straight defeat.
