Collingwood forward Jaidyn Stephenson will represent Collingwood's VFL side on Saturday, after his 10-match ban for gambling ends on Friday night.

The young forward was banned for 10 matches after he was found to have been gambling on games involving the Pies, with the ban set to take him through to the end of the home-and-away season.

However, with the Pies playing Essendon on Friday night in the AFL and Collingwood's VFL side playing on Saturday against Box Hill, Stephenson will be available on Saturday.
