Collingwood welcomes back two premiership players Darren Jolly and Dayne Beams for Sunday's contest against Essendon.

Jolly returns after missing last week with a virus and will run out for his 200th AFL match.  The 29-year-old, who is in his second season at Collingwood and 11th at the elite level, will become just the 11th player to reach 200 games after first being selected in a rookie draft.

Beams, 21, has missed the last six matches with a broken foot, an injury sustained in the win against St Kilda in round 11.  The premiership Magpie  resumes his season averaging a career high 21.2 disposals, 5.5 marks and 1.2 goals in his eight matches.

Cameron Wood and John McCarthy have both been omitted from the side that enjoyed a 54-point win over the Gold Coast Suns last Saturday.

Injured duo Sharrod Wellingham (groin) and Alan Didak (calf) are both expected back next week with Chris Dawes (hand) and Alan Toovey (finger) still a fortnight away.

Essendon has made three changes losing key positional players Tayte Pears (knee) and Michael Hurley (foot) to injury and Henry Slattery omitted while captain Jobe Watson, Tom Bellchambers and first-gamer Michael Ross are included.

Collingwood will be looking to make it five wins in a row over the ninth-placed Essendon.  The Magpies will also be vying for a 10th straight win, the last time occurring from rounds 7-17 in 1965 (11 in a row).
