But weve moved on pretty quick.The Eagles were forced to make two changes this week.Tom Barrass (shin soreness) and Simon Tunbridge (suspended) were forced out, with Lewis Jetta and Jackson Nelson handed recalls.Hawthorn named an unchanged line-up from the team that beat North Melbourne by 39 points last week.Wholesale Air Max Plus .
