Collingwood has made two changes against Geelong on Thursday night at Optus Stadium.

Jordan De Goey returns to the Pies line-up after dealing with off-field matters that saw him miss round six.

De Goey replaces the injured Will Kelly, who had elbow surgery in Melbourne on Tuesday.

Senior coach Nathan Buckley believes the 24-year-old is in a good head space to attack the Cats.

“Physically he's in great shape and mentally and emotionally he seems good. To be back in amongst the group I think has been good for both he and Steele (Sidebottom) and Ben Reid who was over here earlier, and a handful of our staff of course as well,” Buckley said.

Josh Daicos returns after an ankle sprain saw him pull out of the clash against Hawthorn.

After an impressive return to senior football, Matt Scharenberg will miss the blockbuster clash after sustaining a knock to the ribs in the final stages of the fourth term against Hawthorn.

Our emergencies for the clash are Darcy Cameron, Jack Madgen, Josh Thomas, John Noble.

The remaining AFL listed players won’t have an opportunity to contest a scratch match due to the strict 14-day quarantine protocols in Western Australia.

The first bounce at Optus Stadium is set for 8.10pm (AEST). Tune in live on Channel 7, Fox Footy and on AFL Live Pass.
