Western Bulldogs vs Collingwood Magpies Preview

Together inside the Wildcard ladder positions to begin Round 12, the Western Bulldogs and Collingwood will attempt to secure an important victory at Marvel Stadium on Saturday night. Coming off a tough run of results, the Bulldogs bounced back to upset Melbourne 93-90 at Marvel on Sunday behind outstanding performances from Ed Richards (30 disposals, 773 metres gained, 10 clearances, three goals) and Marcus Bontempelli (29 disposals, 17 contested possessions, 10 score involvements, two goals). Elsewhere, Collingwood celebrated Scott Pendlebury’s record-breaking 433rd game by defeating West Coast 92-82 in front of 90,000 spectators at the MCG. However, the win came at a significant cost, with Jamie Elliott rupturing his ACL and Darcy Moore sustaining a hamstring injury. These sides played out a thriller when they last met, with Collingwood ultimately securing a 76-70 victory at the MCG in Round 2 of last year, although it should be noted that the Bulldogs were missing Bontempelli on that night.
