Spearhead Daniel Bradshaw has been named in a strong Swans side to take on Collingwood this Saturday night at ANZ Stadium.

Bradshaw, who has missed the past three games after injuring his knee against Fremantle, has been running well and coach Paul Roos says he’s looking fit.

“He’s run seven or eight times. We certainly expect him to play,’’ Roos said.

Rhyce Shaw, who was absent from the match against Port Adelaide with a hip injury, has also been brought back into the team.

Coach Paul Roos said youngsters Pat Veszpremi and Gary Rohan had been omitted, but were “stiff to miss out’’.

“Both are certainly not missing because of form, but because we are getting two good experienced players coming back,’’ Roos said.

The coach said the key to beating Collingwood was an even team performance.

“We need everyone playing well. In past games against Collingwood we’ve had standout performances here but we just haven’t had a good enough collective team effort, so that is the key,’’ he said.
