Warrior Ben Turner-Dwyer has a minor fracture in his cheekbone and could miss three to six weeks.

Turner-Dwyer suffered the injury in the contest which left East Warrnambool coach Danny Chatfield with a fractured skull and bleeding on the brain last Saturday.

Old Collegians co-captain Paul Campbell, who broke his arm during pre-season training, will come in for his first match of the season.

He'll be joined by key midfielder Bodie Hibberson and playing assistant coach Michael Lambevski for the clash with Allansford.

Ben Price said his Cats had a solid week on the track and will unveil one of their boom recruits on Saturday.

Nathan Hunt, who switched from South Warrnambool, will make his debut at centre half-back.

The Cats line-up will also be bolstered by the return of playing assistant coach Nicholas Johnstone, while Dalton Pincott has been rewarded for his form in the reserves.

Allansford will be without Travis Membrey who injured his ankle last week.

Nirranda has brought in a goal scoring force to face Merrivale.

Gary Robinson, the club's leading goalkicker of the past three seasons, is back at full-forward for his first match of the season.

But the Blues will be missing in-form forward Jesse Dalton who could miss three to four weeks with a sore knee.

The Tigers bring back a scoring machine of their own with Kyden Jarvis to return.

He has kicked 16 goals this season and is third on the league's goalkicking table.

East Warrnambool assistant coach Paul Hrabar said "the players will be looking at trying to get a win for Danny".

The Bombers have brought in Liam Feros-Collins and Corey Brown for their encounter with Dennington.

Dogs coach Mick Phillips has moved numerous magnets this week with the return of influential players who were unavailable in round five.

Youngster Sam Lee will be a welcome addition in the midfield while Luke Moutray will provide a strong target up forward.

South Rovers coach Adam Matheson is another coach that's had to reshuffle his board.

The Lions have seven changes with key forward Corey McLaren and backman Trent Harman among the inclusions.

The Timboon Demons side remains the same except that Lyndon Alsop comes for Mik McSween who has injured his back and could miss three to four weeks.

Panmure will be without Luke Gavin who injured his anterior cruciate ligament and will miss the rest of the season.

Russells Creek has brought in Liam Boyle, Heath Moloney, Dylan Jongebloed and Pedro Sharp for its clash with the Bulldogs.
