RUCKMAN Sean Darcy's failure to overcome hamstring tightness will leave Fremantle's Scott Jones opposed to Collingwood All Australian Brodie Grundy on Monday.
Despite scans clearing Darcy of damage following the injury in the Dockers' intraclub last Friday, the 20-year-old will join Aaron Sandilands on the sidelines for their JLT Community Series opener at Joondalup Arena.
Jones, who played five matches in his debut season last year, was added to the side along with mature-age draftee Brett Bewley.
SATURDAY, SUNDAY TEAMS Max gone as new Demon gets his chance
Forward Cam McCarthy, entering a career-defining third season at the Dockers, was dropped from the teams released on Thursday night.
Collingwood will take the field as named, in a side that will feature 13 members of last year's losing Grand Final side.
Mason Cox and Adam Treloar have been named as emergencies and won't travel, rested along with Tyson Goldsack, Brayden Maynard and Brayden Sier.
Taylor Adams (finger), Will Hoskin-Elliott (leg), Jordan De Goey (foot) and Jeremy Howe (leg) were unavailable for selection.
Howe completed the club's open session on Saturday morning, showing no signs of the corked leg that required draining three weeks ago.
De Goey ran strongly away from the main group in a sign he'll be fit to play round one after overcoming a midfoot sprain.
JLT FULL FIXTURE Where your team's playing its warm-up games
Monday will also mark the chance for both sides to unveil recruits.
Dayne Beams will play his first game back in Collingwood colours alongside former Bulldog Jordan Roughead.
Star Dockers signing Jesse Hogan has been cleared to play after an ongoing foot problem and will play alongside Travis Colyer and Rory Lobb, who will provide assistance in the ruck.
With Dockers skipper Nat Fyfe (elbow) not playing with a view to next week's JLT Community Series clash with the Eagles, David Mundy will take the reins as skipper.
