Collingwood has made five changes for their round 13 clash against North Melbourne at the Gabba on Monday night.

Levi Greenwood makes his return from an ACL injury, the 31-year-old has put together a near seamless rehab program over the last 11 months.

Greenwood impressed with his inside contested work in a scratch match against Melbourne last week.

The hard midfielder has not played AFL since injuring his knee against Geelong in last year’s qualifying final.

Mason Cox comes back into the Magpies’ line-up for his fifth outing of the season, while defender Jordan Roughead has recovered from a bout of concussion that saw him miss the previous two rounds.

Lively forward Flynn Appleby is set to play his first game of the season, the 21-year-old has been knocking on the door with impressive form up forward in the club’s scratch matches.

Veteran Chris Mayne comes in for Callum Brown who has been omitted from the side.

Brody Mihocek was ruled out after a nasty concussion against Melbourne, senior coach Nathan Buckley confirmed this on Saturday.

“Mihocek won’t play. He didn’t pass the concussion test three days ago,” Buckley said.

“Five days prior to the game you have to be clear. He’s simply not right to go. We’ll continue to take medical advice from our team.”

Our emergencies are Nathan Murphy, Rupert Wills, Matt Scharenberg, Callum Brown.
