Collingwood has one final chance to return to form before September when the side takes on a spluttering Essendon at the MCG.
The Pies (17-5, 123.2%) have lost three of their last four matches and been beset with injury, but regain Jordan De Goey and Bobby Hill for Friday night’s match.
The Bombers (11-11, 92.7%) are coming off a paltry showing against Greater Western Sydney and have lost six players due to injury, with the side’s season over following tonight’s contest.
