MELBOURNE has dumped No.4 pick Jimmy Toumpas for Sunday's must-win match against Greater Western Sydney.
Toumpas has played bit part roles for the Demons after making his debut in Round 1 as the substitute.
But Demons coach Mark Neeld has gifted No. 1 draft pick Jack Watts an instant reprieve despite the struggling defender not playing football at any level last week.
Watts was named in a back pocket ahead of Sunday's critical clash against Greater Western Sydney.

Ruckman Max Gawn, who has not played since 2011, is also set to return after being named in the starting 18.
Watts was axed last week but, instead of playing for VFL affiliate Casey, was taken to the MCG on standby ahead of the Eagles clash.
"Jack missed last week's game, based on his training form, attitude and the way we want to set our backline, he gets another opportunity to show what he can do," Dees football manager Josh Mahoney said.
The Demons will name their omissions tomorrow, when the 25-man squad is trimmed to 22.
NORTH Melbourne ball magnet Liam Anthony has beaten off Kangaroos Will Sierakowski and Levi Greenwood for a spot in Sunday's team.
Anthony is joined by boom Kangaroos debutant Majak Daw in the best 22.
Daw is set to become the first Sudanese born player to make his AFL debut.
BRISBANE is set to unveil rebounding defender Sam Docherty and key post Marco Paparone on Sunday at Etihad Stadium.
Both played in the Lions successful NAB Cup campaign and have continued their good form in the NEAFL.
The Western Bulldogs have been decimated further by the loss of star Robert Murphy.
The stand-in captain injured his calf and joins Shaun Higgins (foot), Easton Wood (hamstring) and Tory Dickson (ankle) as forced changes ahead of the clash with Adelaide on Sunday.
The Dogs have also lost young midfielder Lin Jong with a broken leg.
But skipper Matthew Boyd will face the Crows, while prized draft picks Jackson Macrae and Jake Stringer are both named in the squad and likely to debut.

A settled Richmond made no changes ahead of its blockbuster clash against Collingwood.
The Magpies brought back youngsters Paul Seedsman and Josh Thomas at the expense of veteran Ben Johnson (calf) and Jack Frost.
Geelong has regained defender Jared Rivers for Friday night's match against Sydney, while George Horlin-Smith also returns at the expense of Travis Varcoe (shoulder) and Jordan Murdoch.

Out: P.Ryder (Suspension) , T.Colyer (Omitted) , N.Kommer (Suspension) , E.Kavanagh (Omitted) , D.Fletcher (Groin)
SUPERCOACH NOTES
Paddy Ryder's three-game suspension is a massive blow to over 25,000 coaches, especially after he recorded a whopping 145 points last week against Fremantle. A straight swap for a similarly priced Sam Jacobs is the way to go.

SUPERCOACH NOTES
Melbourne ranks 18th for inside 50 differentials this season, averaging 30 fewer per match compared to its opposition. This has had a major impact on its forwards, as highlighted by Mitch Clark's price fall of $36,600 – the biggest of any Melbourne player.
GREATER WESTERN SYDNEY
B: A.Kennedy 40, T.Mohr 39, P.Davis 1

Out: D.Brogan (suspension) , C.Hampton, W.Hoskin-Elliott, D.Smith (suspension) , J.Patton (knee)
SUPERCOACH NOTES
Jon Patton's season-ending knee injury last week against St Kilda is a cruel blow for the youngster and the competition as well. If you haven't got the funds to upgrade him, then trading down to rookie Sam Mayes is an option worth considering.
ADELAIDE v WESTERN BULLDOGS, 3.15pm Sunday at AAMI Stadium
ADELAIDE

In: T.Lynch, S.McKernan, S.Kerridge, R.Laird, J.Lyons
Out: N.van Berlo (knee), B.Vince
SUPERCOACH NOTES
Like Adelaide themselves, Patrick Dangerfield has struggled to get going this season, suffering the fifth-biggest price fall of any midfielder in the AFL. Receiving plenty of attention from the opposition, he has had to win more of the ball from a contest than ever before, recording a contested possession rate of 61 per cent.
WESTERN BULLDOGS
B: T.Young 31, J.Roughead 23, L.Picken 42

Out: R.Murphy (calf), S.Higgins (foot), E.Wood (hamstring), T.Campbell, T.Dickson (ankle)
SUPERCOACH NOTES
If you haven't got Brett Goodes in your side now then I'm afraid you have missed the boat. He has taken the most kick-ins of any player in the competition after three rounds and just enjoyed a $96,800 price increase – the biggest of any player in the AFL.

Out: J.Polec (foot), E.Yeo (omitted)
SUPERCOACH NOTES
Dayne Zorko has been a shadow of the player he was last season, averaging 30 fewer points per game – the second-biggest fall of any Brisbane player. His defensive play is one area of his game that has dropped off, averaging three fewer tackles per game.
