Collingwood has named captain Scott Pendlebury among fives changes for the clash against Melbourne at the Gabba on Saturday.
Pendlebury has missed the past four games with a quadriceps strain, senior coach Nathan Buckley declaring the Pies skipper was ready to go on Friday.
"Tomorrow can’t come soon enough for Pendles, because he’s right to go,” Buckley said in his press conference.
"He is right to go and looking forward to playing.
"He has done everything in his power and he is up and physically ready to go."
Jamie Elliott and Will Hoskin-Elliott are welcome additions to face Melbourne after missing round 11 with minor injuries.
Ben Reid and Darcy Moore come back into the line-up after being managed through the compressed fixture.
Jordan Roughead (concussion) and Brayden Sier (quad) will miss round 12 after sustaining injuries in the win over the Crows.
