ON THE BLOCK: A much-needed win should see a relatively quiet week at selection for Nathan Buckley and co this week. Tom Langdon managed 10 disposals and could come under some pressure for the clash against West Coast. Jarryd Blair came in for game No. 150 but didn't set the world on fire with 13 disposals and one goal. ON THE CUSP: It was a dirty day for Collingwood in the VFL with a 10-goal loss to Williamstown. The result makes it hard for AFL hopefuls to press their case but Jackson Ramsay and Rupert Wills were the Magpies' best while Kayle Kirby and Chris Mayne managed one goal apiece. BEN HIGGINS'S FORECAST: A rare quiet week at Holden Centre after a crucial win — on the road to boot — for Buckley and the Magpies. They'll see West Coast at Etihad Stadium as a winnable game, given the Eagles' struggles in Victoria. Finals are still a mathematical possibility but highly unlikely but Buckley has vowed to see the season out and the Pies could play spoiler in the final few weeks. |
