CHRIS Mayne will make his official debut for Collingwood on Friday night, after being a late call-up.
The former Fremantle forward was initially left out of the Magpies' round one team to face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG.

However, midfielder James Aish's withdrawal from the match with a virus has handed Mayne his first game in black and white.
The 28-year-old joined Collingwood on a four-year deal during last year's trade period.
Mayne played in all three of Collingwood's JLT Community Series matches, kicking two goals against Richmond in the club's final pre-season game.
He kicked 196 goals during his 172 games at Fremantle after being drafted with pick No.40 in 2007.
