Lynden Dunn has worked very hard on the track and in the gym over the past year

Lynden Dunn's effort to prove himself on the training track over recent months has been rewarded.

He played 165 AFL games for Melbourne between 2006 and 2016 and has played 31 games for Collingwood since joining the club in the lead-up to the 2017 season.

However, Dunn's last AFL game was against the Gold Coast in round 15, 2018.

He suffered a serious during the win over the Suns, which meant he missed Collingwood's run to the 2018 Grand Final.

He then suffered another knee injury in a VFL practice in March 2019, forcing him to the sidelines once more as the Pies made it to an AFL preliminary final.

The Pies' 2020 playing list is now complete.
