Collingwood has withdrawn young midfielder Rupert Wills from Sunday's clash with the Crows at the MCG.

Wills was initially named in the Magpies' final 22 on Friday but has been forced out due to a quad complaint.

He played his first AFL game of the season in last week's win over West Coast.

Veteran Jarryd Blair, who was originally omitted, returns to Collingwood's team in Wills' place.

Callum Brown has been added as an emergency alongside ruck/forward Mason Cox and untried father-son Josh Daicos.

Seedsman returns for Adelaide

Key-position player Matthew Scharenberg and utility Tom Phillips remain Collingwood's two inclusions from last round's win over the Eagles.

Former Cat Travis Varcoe had surgery on a dislocated elbow on Thursday and will miss Sunday's clash at the MCG.
