West Coast will unveil their top two picks from the 2007 NAB AFL Draft against Adelaide on Saturday with South Australian Brad Ebert and East Fremantle’s Chris Masten both named in the starting 18 for the clash.

Ebert was taken at No. 13 in the draft by the Eagles after winning Under-18 All-Australian selection last year and was one of Peel’s best in the WAFL last week, while Masten, the No. 3 pick, was just as impressive for the Sharks.

Masten was suspended by the club for the preseason series after an Australia Day incident in which the 18-year-old was involved in a foreshore scuffle.

The pair replace the injured Mark LeCras and the omitted Matt Rosa.

The Crows meanwhile have also made two changes from the side that lost to the Western Bulldogs last week bringing in Luke Jericho and Kris Massie for the injured Brent Reilly and Robert Shirley.
