West Coast's Scott Selwood could resume from an ankle injury in Sunday's clash with the Crows at Adelaide Oval.

The tough midfielder has missed two matches with the complaint, which is the latest of several setbacks that have restricted Selwood to just 12 games this season.

The Eagles are likely to welcome back key backman Jeremy McGovern from a hamstring injury. Like Selwood, McGovern's last senior appearance was in West Coast's Round 19 clash with Hawthorn.

Fellow backman Will Schofield isn't expected to overcome his own hamstring worries in time to tackle the Crows.

Sam Butler is another hamstrung Eagle who has been ruled out of Sunday's match at Adelaide Oval. The 29-year-old last played in Round 20 against Fremantle.

Former Magpie Sharrod Wellingham will be monitored during the week after picking up a minor ankle injury.

Xavier Ellis was subbed out of Sunday's win and may be given a week off given his soft tissue history.

Chris Masten has another week to serve on his suspension, while WAFL affiliate East Perth had a bye last weekend so the likes of Kane Lucas and Tom Lamb had a forced lay-off after some good form at State League level.
