The Brisbane Lions VFL side have made five changes as they take on Collingwood in Round 4 of Smithy’s VFL action.

Darcy Fort and Will McLachlan headline the changes for Ben Hudson’s men as Darcy Craven returns from illness.

Sam Marshall and Jimmy Tunstill have both been elevated to the AFL side, while Jack Manly has overcome illness after missing the Tigers game in Round 2.

Curtis McCarthy, brother of Lincoln, is set to make his debut in Lions colours at VFL level after strong performances for the Noosa Tigers in the QAFL.

Ben Thomas, Hayden Bertoli Simmons and Tristen Meekin have all been omitted.

Fans are encouraged to get down to Brighton Homes Arena with Lions hosting the Magpies from 12:05pm.

If you can’t make the game you can catch all the action on the AFL app or the live stream on https://www.afl.com.au/vfl
