Geelong has made one change for its Round 11 Sir Doug Nicholls Round clash with Collingwood at the MCG on Saturday afternoon.

First-year Cat Max Holmes returns to the side and will play his first AFL match since Round 9 when he was a substitute against St Kilda.

The fleet footed midfielder made his debut in Round 3 against the Hawks at the MCG collecting 16 disposals.

Holmes replaces star onballer Mitch Duncan who will miss through injury after being substituted out of the game in Geelong's victory against the Gold Coast Suns with concussion.

Saturday's game at the MCG will be played in front of no crowd with the first bounce at 1.45pm. 

The match will be televised on Fox Footy/Kayo, with the medical substitute to be named an hour out prior to the first bounce.
