Jonathon Marsh will make his first appearance of 2020 when he takes on his old side in Collingwood on Saturday afternoon.

The former Magpie comes in for skipper Jarryn Geary, who strained his hamstring in last Sunday’s victory over the Western Bulldogs.

Geary is expected to miss one to two weeks.

With a host of talent eyeing off senior selection, Brett Ratten has opted for a largely unchanged line-up to tackle the star-studded Magpies.

Josh Battle, Jack Sinclair, Daniel McKenzie and Ryan Abbott have been named as emergencies.

St Kilda will face Collingwood on Saturday, 20 June at the MCG, with the opening bounce at 4:35pm.

OUT: Geary (injured)
