Collingwood VFL Head Coach Josh Fraser has confirmed two inclusions for Sunday’s Wildcard Round clash against Richmond.
Will Kelly and Sam Glover are the two inclusions, replacing Josh Eyre (Injured) and Chad Mulvogue.
Midfielder Finlay Macrae has been named, backing up from playing the second half of Friday’s 70-point AFL victory against Essendon.
Despite playing only a half of football, Macrae finished with a team-high eight tackles, in addition to seven disposals.
Wildcard Round is a new feature introduced for the 2023 VFL Season, with the winner of Collingwood’s clash against Richmond progressing to next weekend’s Elimination Final against Footscray.
All matches during Wildcard Round will be ticketed, with admission prices being adults $15, concession/pensioners $10 and children under 15 free. Secure your tickets.
The Pies’ clash against the Tigers will be broadcast live and free on the Seven Network via Channel 7, and 7plus. Viewers outside of Victoria can tune in to Seven’s VFL coverage via 7plus.
