Coulter-Nile, the team's leading wicket-taker in their victorious campaign last season, said that while he understood WA were making changes in a bid to end a 21-year Sheffield Shield title drought he did not agree with the decision.
"I'd love to face WA, I'd definitely be fired up for it," the 32-year-old told the Cricket Australia website.
"I know the boys had nothing to do with the decision, and a few of them openly said they were disappointed with it, but any chance I get to prove the decision-makers wrong, I'd definitely take that opportunity.
"I understand where they're coming from. They want to win a Shield title and that's the way they thought they needed to go do it," he said.
