Collingwood vs Western Bulldogs Preview
Collingwood will be eager to return to winning ways after dropping to a 4-4 record after losing against rivals Richmond by 27 points. Although that margin is sweetened by the four late goals after trailing by as much as 47 points in the last term.
It was obvious that the Magpies missed Brodie Grundy throughout the match, with his absence making it tough in the clearance and stoppage department despite the Tiger’s undermanned midfield.
Similarly, the Western Bulldogs failed to get their fourth win of the campaign against Port Adelaide in their last outing, highlighting the inconsistency of a troubled campaign. Last year’s Grand Finalists have still failed to win back-to-back matches this season.
Not only was it yet another lacklustre defeat, but they also suffered a long-term injury to lively forward Cody Weightman, who is one of two Dogs players to kick more than 10 goals this season. Although Marcus Bontempelli was rested last week, he will still be touch and go for this week’s clash.
It’s a tough match to predict at Marvel Stadium on Friday night considering you don’t know what to expect from both sides this season. Although if the star-studded midfield of the Dogs can get on top, they should steal the four points.
