Collingwood Magpies vs West Coast Eagles Preview
Collingwood will celebrate Scott Pendlebury’s historic 433rd AFL game when it hosts West Coast at the MCG on Saturday. The Magpies come into the occasion under scrutiny after surrendering a 33-point lead in last week’s narrow loss to Sydney, with the decision to rest Pendlebury becoming a major talking point. Injuries also continue to mount for Collingwood, particularly in the ruck department following Oscar Steene’s ACL injury. West Coast, meanwhile, produced one of the surprises of Round 10 by defeating GWS in Perth behind a dominant midfield display from Harley Reid. The Eagles have been far more competitive at home this season than on the road, making this trip to Melbourne another major challenge. Collingwood handled West Coast comfortably in their most recent meeting last year, with Pendlebury influential in what will now become another milestone occasion for the veteran midfielder.
