Collingwood has regained three crucial players for Saturday night's qualifying final against West Coast at Optus Stadium.

Midfielders Adam Treloar and defenders Jeremy Howe and Tyson Goldsack have been named after long stints on the sidelines due to injuries.

Jack Madgen (omitted), Nathan Murphy (omitted) and Adam Oxley (omitted) are the unlucky players to make way.

Madgen is the only one of the three to be included among the emergencies.

The other emergencies are Jarryd Blair, Callum Brown and Josh Daicos.

Treloar returns for his first game since suffering a serious hamstring injury against Carlton in late June, while Howe is back after missing four games due to a nasty corked thigh.

Goldsack is the shock inclusion.

He returns to the AFL team just six months after suffering a serious knee injury in the Pies' final JLT Community Series match against the Western Bulldogs in Moe.

The 31-year-old completed a remarkable comeback when he lined up in the VFL two weeks ago, then had a quiet outing second-up in Collingwood's VFL elimination final loss to Essendon last weekend.

Goldsack has been named at centre half-back and will likely spend time minding star Eagles forward Josh Kennedy or his sidekick Jack Darling.

Howe is also expected to line up on Darling and Kennedy at various times in the match.
