COLLINGWOOD co-captain Steph Chiocci will return to boost the side for its heavyweight clash with Fremantle on Thursday.
Chiocci has sat out the past two weeks with Achilles soreness, and isn't the only change for the Pies.
Young forward/midfielder Tarni Brown returns from an unfortunate combination of concussion suffered in round one, followed by unavailability due to AFL Health and Safety Protocols, while Erica Fowler is making her own return from concussion.
El Chaston, Amelia Velardo and Bella Smith make way for the trio to return.
Fremantle midfielder Jasmin Stewart comes in for her first game of the season after three matches as an emergency, while forward Ann McMahon returns after a week's rest.
Matilda Sergeant has been rested, while Tiah Toth has been managed
