Collingwood - Port Melbourne (A), Frankston (H, VP), Sandringham (H, VP)

Note:
- This match was originally fixtured to be played as a Collingwood home game at Victoria Park. However, due to North Port Oval's surface being declared as not up to standard for the Round 2 game between these two sides, the fixtures were swapped, with this becoming a Port Melbourne home game in exchange for the Round 2 match becoming a Collingwood home game played at Olympic Park.

- This match will serve as something off an off-Broadway show on Saturday afternoon, before the main event at Etihad Stadium with the senior side in the evening. Fans will have the better part of approximately two and half hours to get between games.

Milestone:
Jarryd Blair - 50 games

Over to you...

On paper, looks the toughest of our remaining H&A games. Hopefully we'll see a few blokes back from injury.

The weather for this game looks extremely grim. Which isn't ideal for returning players looking for form and also makes it a real danger game as it is a MUST win for top 4.

Still no Rupert Wills. Good thing we signed him up for next year nice and early, eh...?

In the plus column, at least pressure machine Borthwick is back.

Also, it's a big milestone for Jarryd Blair. He plays his 50th game. Let's all give him a hand...

Maybe getting Reid ready to take over CHF, then shift Mihocek back.
Our backline looking very light on for talls.
So McLarty will be the last chance saloon...if we lose another defender.

We have no other Defenders Left
