Collingwood Magpies vs Adelaide Crows Preview

The hot Pies are well and truly in stock at the moment and if there was ever a do-or-die clash the Crows wanted to play in, this is the worst one.

Collingwood has not lost since Round 2, back against the Saints, and whilst they still aren’t playing their best footy, they’ve cultivated back their quick and electric energy that keeps the ball moving.

The Crows sit a game and a half out of the top eight, and will be playing catch-up for a while if they’re any chance of closing the gap by the end of the year.

Both teams play a limited defensive style, punishing off turnover and putting the jets on through the corridor, generating quick inside 50 entries.

The Crows have lacked in goal efficiency this year, and whilst they were capitalising against the Lions, away from home they can’t afford to be wasteful.

The one area of advantage the Crows have is at the stoppages, sitting second in the lead for stoppage clearances, they should win the inside 50 entries.

The Crows got a big away scalp against the Blues a month ago, so maybe the tables are starting to turn, but a full Pies crowd at the G’ says otherwise.
