Collingwood Magpies vs Gold Coast Suns Preview

With just one victory separating them on the ladder, Collingwood and Gold Coast will come together at the MCG on Sunday afternoon.

The Magpies improved to 3-3 in 2022 thanks to a 93-82 ANZAC Day victory over Essendon.

Accurate goalkicking proved the difference in that matchup, with Collingwood’s 15 goals, three behinds marking the second-most accurate performance in club history (minimum 15 scoring shots).

Jack Ginnivan was a major factor in that result, putting through five majors to take home the ANZAC Day medal.

However, a significant knee injury to Brodie Grundy soured the win.

Elsewhere, Gold Coast dropped to 2-4 via its disappointing 132-80 QClash loss to Brisbane.

That result marked the highest score the Suns have conceded at Metricon Stadium since Round 17, 2019.

Gold Coast enjoyed more success when last facing Collingwood, claiming a 79-55 upset victory at this venue in Round 7, 2021 behind Brandon Ellis’ 35-disposal, 16-mark, one-goal performance and Josh Corbett’s four-goal display.
