West Coast coach Adam Simpson insists hes not stressing about the poor form of Lewis Jetta just yet despite having to axe the former Swan for the third time this season.Jetta has been dropped for Sundays AFL clash with Carlton at the MCG after tallying just nine disposals in last weeks win over North Melbourne.The 27-year-old has struggled to fire since crossing from Sydney to West Coast at the end of last season, and his hopes of playing a key role in the Eagles premiership push appear to be fading.But Simpson is optimistic the 2012 premiership star will work his way back into form soon.Jetta will travel to Melbourne as the teams emergency this week, giving him a slight chance of earning a late reprieve against the Blues.You go in with a pretty open mind when you get new recruits, Simpson said on Friday.Its a longer term thing. Its not something Im stressing about.Im sure hes disappointed, and he should be. But well be ok.He understands where hes at. He understands theres work to do. But were both positive about where hes heading.Former Lion Jack Redden will replace Jetta in the side after tallying a combined 62 disposals and three goals in his past two WAFL matches.Redden, who underwent adductor surgery over summer, struggled to find form for the Eagles earlier this season.But Simpson is optimistic the 25-year-old is finally ready to do what he does best - hunt the ball.The selection battle at West Coast is set to intensify further over the coming weeks, with defender Eric Mackenzie and midfielder Dom Sheed among the players looking to earn a recall.Carlton were dealt a triple blow on the selection front, with Levi Casboult (suspended), Andrew Walker (knee), and Dale Thomas (calf) all ruled out.Simpson said he would consider using Mark Hutchings in a tagging role to curb the influence of star Blues midfielder Patrick Cripps.West Coast started the round just one win adrift of second spot, and a win over Carlton would further bolster their top-four hopes.

DeAndre Jordan Jersey . Anthony Davis had 31 points and 17 rebounds in his seventh straight game with more than 20 points, but that was only enough to keep the Pelicans competitive into the final minutes.

Newly crowned champion Shane van Gisbergen has enjoyed the shortest of Supercars honeymoons, coming under fire from his former would-be boss Betty Klimenko the day after winning his maiden title.The trailblazing Klimenko was due to take on the contracted van Gisbergen at her Erebus team after assuming control in 2012 of the Stone Brothers Racing licence.The New Zealander instead walked with a cloud hovering over his motivations and an unconscionable conduct legal action settled out of court when he later joined Tekno Autosport.Klimenko, who transformed the team by converting the Falcons to Mercedes-AMGs, arrived at the conclusion that the Aucklander couldnt see past her gender.The crew was identical; the location was identical; the factory was identical. Even Ross Stone was still there, Klimenko told Speedcafe.com.Not going into manufacturers, there was one thing (different) that was not about the car and that was me - a woman.I find that to be insulting. I thought it was very, very wrong and very sexist of him because thats all I can think of.If he tells me its the manufacturer ... no one knew what those cars were going to do. They could have gone out and smashed every record - he didnt know. The only thing left wass me.dddddddddddd.Reflecting on the saga last week, van Gisbergen said he had serious reservations about the new outfit, saying he would have rather have stayed on the couch than raced for the new team.He rejected Klimenkos claims outright as completely false.It was absolutely nothing to do with her. I just didnt believe in the program and the way it was going to run, he said.They (AMG) were sending everything over and no one was coming out (to Australia).In my eyes, it was a certainty (that it would struggle). It was definitely the right call (to leave).Klimenko made the allegations after reading the 27-year-olds reflections on the controversial move, which she believed went to her character and reputation.Im trying my hardest to integrate women into motorsport, she said.I do talks. I do everything else and, to have this young man come along and ruin all that with one article, is just not right. You cant do that.After running the elite German vehicles for three seasons without success, Klimenkos team switched to Holdens in 2016, managing just one podium - in Sundays final race in Sydney.
