Collingwood has confirmed its 26-man team for Monday's JLT Community Series match against Fremantle at Joondalup.
The Pies have named a line-up that features 13 members of last year's losing Grand Final side.
Mason Cox and Adam Treloar have been named as emergencies and won't travel, rested along with Tyson Goldsack, Brayden Maynard and Brayden Sier.
Howe completed the club's open session on Saturday morning, showing no signs of the corked leg that required draining three weeks ago.
De Goey ran strongly away from the main group in a sign he'll be fit to play round one after overcoming a midfoot sprain.
Monday will also mark the chance for both sides to unveil recruits.
Dayne Beams will play his first game back in Collingwood colours alongside former Bulldog Jordan Roughead.
Star Dockers signing Jesse Hogan has been cleared to play after an ongoing foot problem and will play alongside Travis Colyer and Rory Lobb, who will provide assistance in the ruck.
With Dockers skipper Nat Fyfe (elbow) not playing with a view to next week's JLT Community Series clash with the Eagles, David Mundy will take the reins as skipper.
