COLLINGWOOD is boosted by the return of Jamie Elliott for the Queen's Birthday blockbuster against Melbourne, which welcomes back Michael Hibberd.

Elliott was a late withdrawal for the Magpies' win over Hawthorn last week through illness, but returns for Monday's clash at the MCG, replacing Reef McInnes (shoulder).

Hibberd, meanwhile, is in for his first game of 2022 after struggling with a calf injury.

The defender joins debutant Daniel Turner in the side, with the pair replacing Jayden Hunt and Adam Tomlinson. Sam Weideman missed out again.

Despite concerns over a knee injury, Brody Mihocek has been named to face the Dees.

While the Magpies (7-5) go into the clash on the back of three straight wins, Melbourne (10-2) has lost its past two and endured a tumultuous week.

It emerged this week that teammates Steven May and Jake Melksham fought, with the former suspended for one game and the latter needing two surgeries after his hand became infected.
