The second quarter was high scoring with both teams kicking five and Collingwood putting themselves right in it with a seven point margin.

Cooper Murley and Matt Wetering were adding to the scoreboard after some brilliant work around the ground from the mids.  

Collingwood had the lead at three-quarter-time but could not manage to hold on as the Sun’s powered through until the end.

Will Kelly was dominant and impressed the coaches earning himself the player of the match.

With 18 touches and 7 marks, he was a reliable down back.

Collingwood have dropped to seventh on the ladder after some dominant performances across the league on the weekend.
