Eastbourne Eagles are set to announce their full line-up for the 2009 season with both Scott Nicholls and Lee Richardson omitted.

The line-up will see Davey Watt returning to Arlington after winning the Elite League title with Poole Pirates.

Unexpectedly Lewis Bridger will be back in the side along with 2008 team-mates Ed Kennett, Cameron Woodward and Simon Gustafsson.

"Team building is going to be a very hard thing to do and most teams will carry two heat leaders whereas it used to be three," said Eagles boss Bob Dugard.

"We have set our stall out slightly differently in that our heat leaders won't be the highest in the league.

"But we're backing it up with five pucker riders whereas a lot of other clubs are going for real big heat leaders will be really struggling at the lower end."

Coming into the side along with Watt are Finnish youngster Appe Mustonen and Russian Sergei Darkin.
