Collingwood will be buoyed by the return of key forward Dan McStay, who featured in the VFL on Saturday.
McStay tore his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) seven and a half months ago and has made a miraculous recovery.
The former Lion played limited minutes but looked strong in the contest and is a shot to be recalled by Craig McRae.
Geelong's winning form will dictate selection but the performances of some well-known faces will give Chris Scott something to think about.
