Small forwards Jamie Elliott and Sam Dwyer return after overcoming their respective injuries. Alan Didak and last week’s debutant Adam Oxley are the men to make way.
Didak and Oxley join untried teenager Tim Broomhead as the Magpies’ three emergencies.
Elliott returns after sitting out last week’s 83-point win over Melbourne with a hamstring niggle while Dwyer has not played since the loss to Sydney in round nine due to a groin complaint.
The inclusion of the two forwards will bolster Collingwood’s potency in front of goal.
With 17 goals in 10 games, Elliott is ranked second on the club’s goal kicking leaderboard. Dwyer is three places behind him with nine.
