WESTERN Bulldogs have dropped three players for Sunday's match against Collingwood, including premiership midfielder Toby McLean.

McLean, Bailey Dale and Ryan Gardner have all been axed from the outfit that narrowly beat Carlton last weekend, while Tom Liberatore is missing following knee surgery.

Former No.2 draft pick Josh Schache, Taylor Duryea, Ed Richards and Roarke Smith have all been named in the 22.

For Collingwood, the suspension of Jaidyn Stephenson has opened the door for Ben Reid to return and play his sixth game of the season.

Reid has kicked seven goals in his five games and will re-join a potent Magpies' forward line.

He is the only change for Collingwood, which has not played since defeating Melbourne by 41 points on Queen's Birthday Monday.

FULL FIXTURE Every round, every game

McLean's axing comes after an exceptional 2018, where he played all 22 games, averaged 24 disposals and finished ninth in the best and fairest.

His production has dropped to 17 touches a game this season.

McLean had played 46 games straight before being dropped.
