New recruit Lynden Dunn is one of four players added to Collingwood's 25-man squad to take on Geelong at the MCG on Sunday.

He takes the place of Ben Reid, whose workload is being managed due to the tight turnaround between games.

Dunn, a former Demon, joins Josh Smith, Matthew Scharenberg and Chris Mayne in the extended squad.

Well Dunn
After 165 games for Melbourne, Lynden Dunn is in line to make his Collingwood debut on Sunday.

Dunn had 15 disposals in the VFL loss to Essendon on Sunday, and has impressed with his leadership in the back half of the ground.

Although he has the ability to play in multiple roles, Dunn spent the duration of the JLT Community Series in defence.

A break for Reid
Key defender Ben Reid will sit out Sunday’s match as a result of the five-day break between matches.

Between ANZAC Day and 6 May, Collingwood will have played three home and away games. As a result, players will be managed as the coaching and fitness staff sees appropriate.

Who else comes in?
Matthew Scharenberg and Chris Mayne have been added to the extended interchange bench. Both featured in Sunday’s VFL loss to Essendon.

Owing to injuries, Scharenberg has not played senior football since round 23, 2015, while Mayne was omitted following the win over Sydney.

Josh Smith, meanwhile, slots into his familiar role at half back after missing the ANZAC Day loss.

Importantly, Tim Broomhead has been named to play despite wearing a knock to the face against Essendon.
