Geelong will field up to 15 AFL-listed players when it meets Collingwood in a must-win VFL clash at Whitten Oval tomorrow night.
Injury-prone ruck Toby Conway will play his first game of the season among four inclusions, which include omitted AFL pair George Stevens and Ollie Henry.
Draftee Lenny Hofmann also returns after missing the win over the GWS Giants.
Going out of the team that upset the Giants are rookie ruck Joe Pike (managed) and VFL-listed trio Jay Rantall (injured), Paddy Hughes, and Taj Wyburd.
One of Stevens, Henry or Mitch Knevitt is likely to be the AFL carryover emergency for Geelong’s AFL clash with St Kilda on Sunday.
Geelong sits six points behind 10th spot, which is the last four of the four Wildcard positions, with four matches to play.
