UPDATE
Friday 5pm: Collingwood has made two changes to its line up for Sunday’s clash with Geelong.

Defender Lynden Dunn has been named to make his club debut, while Josh Smith will join him on a half back flank.

They replace Ben Reid, whose workload is being managed between games, and Jackson Ramsay, who has been omitted.

Ramsay joins Matthew Scharenberg and Chris Mayne as the three emergencies.

"Reidy has a history of soft tissues,” coach Nathan Buckley told the media on Friday afternoon.

“We'll continue to manage our list regardless of win-loss. The quick turnaround (between games) doesn't help him.”

The three emergencies will represent Collingwood’s VFL team against Sandringham at Trevor Barker Oval on Saturday at 2pm.

PREVIOUSLY
Thursday 6.25pm: 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.
