Collingwood vs Port Adelaide Predictions


These sides piled on the points last week with big victories over premiership contenders. I'm expecting another open and flowing game with Collingwood to come out on top with Port Adelaide not great interstate.

Head to Head


Collingwood won the only meeting last year 88-82 at home to Port Adelaide. It ended a run of three straight wins in the fixture for the Power.

Collingwood Form


Collingwood showcased their premiership credentials last week with a stunning final quarter to defeat reigning champions Geelong.

The Pies won the final term 32-4 to come from behind and defeat the Cats 125-103 last Friday.

It was the perfect start to the year after Collingwood missed out on the Grand Final by a single point in 2022.

Collingwood Team News


Collingwood are forced into one change with Jeremy Howe out following a sickening brokem arm injury last week.

Billy Frampton comes in for his Pies debut.

Collingwood Team List


B: Quaynor, Frampton, Maynard
HB: Hoskin-Elliott, Moore, Pendlebury
C: Noble, Adams, J.Daicos
HF: Sidebottom, Mihocek, Hill
F: Elliott, Cameron, N.Daicos
FOLL: McStay, De Goey, Crisp
I/C: Mitchell, Murphy, McCreery, Cox
EMG: Bianco, Ruscoe, McInnes, Carmichael

Port Adelaide Form


Port Adelaide stunned Brisbane Lions last week as the Power ran out 50-point winners at home in Round 1.

The 126-76 victory was an ideal start for a Power side which disappointed in 2022 in finishing 11th on the ladder.

Port Adelaide Team News


Trent McKenzie is ruled out with injury. In the only change, Jase Burgoyne replaces him in the Power side.

Port Adelaide Team List


B: Burton, Jonas, Burgoyne
HB: Byrne-Jones, Aliir, Houston
C: Bergman, Drew, Duursma
HF: Georgiades, Marshall, Rozee
F: Butters, Dixon, Powell-Pepper
FOLL: Lycett, Wines, Horne-Francis
I/C: Farrell, Fantasia, Rioli, Jones
EMG: Boak, Clurey, Bonner, Teakle

Verdict

Collingwood knocked over the reigning premiers last week, while Port Adelaide were also impressive against Brisbane Lions. With home advantage, the Pies appeal here and I'm expecting plenty of points.
