Essendon vs Collingwood Preview
Essendon are out of the finals race after suffering a 126 point loss against the GWS Giants in Round 23. With plenty to play for, the Bombers put up the white flag in what was their fifth worst defeat of all time.
They head in as underdogs agains the ladder leaders, Collingwood, who will be out to bounce back after going down the Brisbane Lions by 24 points in Round 23.
The Magpies have been hit by injuries at the wrong time of the year and have lost three of their past four. They were smashed in the midfield last weekend, while the floodgates have opened up in their backline, conceding 106 points per game in the last month, ranking worst in the competition in that time for points against. Jordan de Goey and Bobby Hill return but Nathan Murphy is out and leaves another gap in the backline.
Despite this, it is hard to see them losing this one and relinquishing their spot at the top of the ladder, given that the Bombers are running on empty at the moment. Should the unlikely happen and the Magpies go down, they could slip to 2nd on the ladder. The likelihood of the Magpies dropping to 3rd and missing out on a home final is minimal, given their 12% buffer over Port Adelaide.
