READ > Melbourne v Collingwood match previewCollingwood has made one change to its team for Monday's Queen's Birthday clash with Melbourne at the MCG, recalling Anthony Rocca at the expense of Shannon Cox.
Rocca returns after missing one week with an ankle injury, which leaves Cox, midfielder Ryan Cook and emerging forward Ben Reid as emergencies after the initial squad of 25 was named on Thursday evening.
Rocca, who has battled ankle problems at different times during the season, has played seven matches in 2008, including an excellent performance playing on Geelong’s Matthew Scarlett in the Magpies’ stunning 86-point win in round nine.
The match marks a significant milestone for in-form Magpie Leon Davis, who becomes the first indigenous player to play 150 games for Collingwood.
Davis is enjoying a super season as a forward/midfielder, and has developed into one of the most consistently dangerous players in the Collingwood side.
