About the NAB Challenge: The AFL's pre-season competition has undergone a major overhaul, with the abolition of the NAB Cup format which saw the two best performed teams meet in the Grand Final a fortnight prior to the home and away season. Instead, each team will play two matches under the NAB Challenge banner before playing one final practice match ahead of the home and away season. Collingwood will open the home and away season with a home game against Fremantle at Etihad Stadium on Friday 14 March at 7.50pm. You can view the entire NAB Challenge fixture here.
Broadcast Details: Collingwood's match against Geelong will be broadcast nationally on Fox Footy (channel 504). It will be broadcast on radio 3AW and SEN from 7pm and KROCK from 6pm. FIVEaa (Adelaide) will relay 3AW's broadcast from 6pm (ACDT).
Please note: Club members do not receive free entry to NAB Challenge matches.
