Collingwood have made a change to their 22 ahead of Sunday's clash with the league-leading Adelaide Crows at the MCG.

Rupert Wills has been withdrawn from the Pies' side, and will be replaced in the team by small forward Jarryd Blair.

Callum Brown has now been elevated to an emergency.

Wills played his first match of 2017 against West Coast last weekend, and recorded 15 disposals, four clearances and five tackles.

Blair, who was initially dropped ahead of Sunday's clash with the Crows, has now been reinstated to the 22, and will take the field for his ninth game of the season.

Matthew Scharenberg and Tom Phillips are the other inclusions for Collingwood this weekend, with Wills and Travis Varcoe making way.
