COLLINGWOOD:

2021 Record: 6-3 (7th).

Fixture: Box Hill Hawks (H), Geelong (H), Northern Bullants (A), GWS (H), Essendon (A), Coburg (A), bye, Footscray (H), bye, Werribee (A), Gold Coast (H), Casey Demons (A), bye, Brisbane Lions (H), Richmond (A), North Melbourne (H), Port Melbourne (A), bye, Southport (H), Williamstown (H), Sydney (A), Carlton (A).

Doesn’t Play: Frankston, Sandringham.

Interstate Trips: NSW 1.

Summary: Statistically the easiest fixture, with only one interstate trip (Sydney, round 21) and Casey being the only top-eight team given a home game against the Magpies. They will be in good shape if they can get past gun teams Box Hill and Geelong in the first two weeks, while the Southport, Williamstown, Sydney (away), Carlton quaddie to finish could be a banana peel.

Difficulty Score: 206.5 (ranked 21st) 106.5 R1-11, 100 R12-22; 62 R1-16, 44.5 R7-11, 53 R12-17, 47 R18-22

Interesting we dont play Frankston or Sandringham. And that we only have 1 interstate trip.

21 teams will play 18 games each in a 22-round home-and-away season. Thats interesting.

Top eight will contest a four-week finals series. That remains the same.

Grand Final scheduled for the weekend of 17/18 September.
