TO COME R9: Adelaide, Norwood Oval, Sun March 28 (L)
WE SAY: Been an incredible season for the Magpies under coach Steve Symonds in his second year in charge, but their six-game undefeated run was halted by a travelling Lions outfit in Round 7. A big win over the Saints this weekend will further boost their percentage, however, their defence is depleted with the club confirming the seasons are over for defenders Lauren Butler and Jordy Allen who were both injured in the loss to Brisbane. Collingwood then head out on the road for the first time in 2021, to face Adelaide at Norwood Oval: how will they handle the travel? That question means surely the Crows will go into that Round 9 clash as favourites. Regardless of where Collingwood finish, they will go into finals as the only team in the likely top six to have not faced Fremantle, the likely minor premiers.
