GEELONG has regained some key names for Friday night's game against Collingwood, as three players are dropped and boom recruit Chloe Scheer is managed. 

Nina Morrison, Sophie Van De Heuvel, Julia Crockett-Grills and Georgie Rankin all return after missing last week through the competition's health and safety protocols. 

Rene Caris has been named for her first game of 2022 to provide support to an inexperienced ruck division, while Annabel Johnson will miss through health and safety protocols after a strong start to her AFLW career. 

Danielle Higgins, Laura Gardiner and Georgia Clarke have all been omitted for the Cats. 

Collingwood regains dangerous forward Chloe Molloy, who missed round two due to health and safety protocols, while Bella Smith will play her first game of 2022 after managing a concussion across the early rounds. 

Last-minute debutant Imogen Barnett has been omitted from the side and Erica Fowler will miss after she copped a head knock against the Saints.
