Nick Daicos returns for Collingwood after the Lions exposed the Pies last week, while Fremantle scraped past the Crows and now look to make it four straight wins.<\/p>\n
Fremantle knocked off Collingwood at the MCG last year and head in as favourites for this Friday night clash at Adelaide Oval.<\/p>\n
The Magpies will welcome back Nick Daicos, who was sorely missed against Brisbane, while the Dockers arrive full of confidence after winning three straight.<\/p>\n
Both teams have been involved in low-scoring games this season, with Collingwood ranking third lowest and Fremantle fifth lowest for total points.<\/p>\n
Only one of Collingwood\u2019s four games this year has gone over, and just two of their last 13 overall. Nine of their last ten night games have gone under.<\/p>\n
Five of the last six night meetings between these sides have also gone under, and with Collingwood\u2019s defensive style, another low total looks likely.<\/p>\n
Before missing last week, Daicos was having a strong impact on the scoreboard.<\/p>\n
He kicked two goals against both the Giants and Crows, and while he went goalless against the Saints, he still registered two behinds.<\/p>\n
He remains a genuine threat forward of centre.<\/p>\n
Bolton has spent more time in the midfield this season but continues to hit the scoreboard.<\/p>\n
He has kicked five goals in 2026 and has scored in five of his last six games.<\/p>\n
He missed last time against Collingwood but still had opportunities, finishing with three behinds.<\/p>\n
Wagner could be tasked with running alongside Daicos, which should keep him around the contest.<\/p>\n
He is averaging 18 disposals this season and has hit 15+ in his last three games.<\/p>\n
