Daniel Wells has been named to make his Collingwood debut when the Magpies meet Essendon in Tuesday's traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster at the MCG. The 31-year-old joins Mason Cox and Tom Phillips as the three inclusions in Nathan Buckley's line up. They replace omitted trio Jarryd Blair, Josh Smith and Jesse White. Smith remains in contention to play as one of the side's three emergencies, alongside Matthew Scharenberg and Josh Daicos. It marks the end of a long and arduous wait for Wells, who has gradually increased his training load in recent weeks. He won 17 disposals and three clearances in the VFL against Coburg last week. Wells will wear the No. 3 jumper previously worn by the recently retired Brent Macaffer. For Cox, meanwhile, it marks a return to senior football for the first time since round one. He famously made his AFL debut on the ANZAC Day stage 12 months ago, kicking a goal with his first kick as the Magpies went on to win by 69 points. |
