IRISHMAN Setanta O'hAilpin is set to be the first beneficiary of GWS coach Kevin Sheedy's promise to wield the axe at the selection table ahead of what is already shaping up as the battle for the wooden spoon.
In a ruthless response to the club's winless start to 2013, Sheedy said O'hAilpin will "most likely" be named on Thursday to make an impeccably timed return from a knee injury.
He booted five goals in the reserves the day after star power forward Jonathon Patton was ruled out for the season with a ruptured ACL in his right knee.
The coach flagged 2011 No.7 draft pick Nick Haynes, rookie draftee Sam Frost, mid-sized defender Shaun Edwards and 2011 No.9 draft pick Adam Tomlinson as potential inclusions to face the Melbourne Demons at the MCG on Sunday.
Sheedy said blow-out losses that were tolerable in the inaugural season will no longer be acceptable.
After a competitive showing in round 1 against the Swans, the Giants have lost to Port Adelaide by 56 points and St Kilda by 72.
The Giants coach said they could make "three or four" changes.
"There are players who haven't played well," Sheedy said.
"No names mentioned, but if you haven't played well then we've got no reason to pick you and we've got to pick a team that's going to give us a chance to win a game. The reserves won by well over 10 goals on the weekend and you've got to reward performance."
