Potent Pies: Collingwood beat Suns with highest score under McRae (The Age)

Collingwood will enter next Saturday's intriguing clash against Richmond brimming with confidence after defeating the Gold Coast by 25 points.

But he missed from an angle just 10 metres out and the Suns stopped as if shot. But the unreliability of his kicking can prove costly, as it did against Collingwood. Sporting a shock of peroxide blond hair and wearing a long-sleeved jumper, the Magpie was going to draw attention given his fashion choices. Gifted a lifeline by the Suns in the rookie draft as insurance, the 32-year-old has been a valuable contributor this year on the Gold Coast and has 16 goals for the season. His physicality was important as the Magpies booted five in succession to build a handy early buffer when kicking their highest opening-term score for the season of 7.3 (45). The Magpies were on the defensive early against the Gold Coast, but Cameron offered a strong marking option in attack and was able to kick two important early goals.

Brody Mihocek kicked four goals while Jack Ginnivan slotted three from a mix of set shots and stunning plays, but all with his trademark flair attached. Ruck ...

It made for a debut for mid-season draftee Aiden Begg, who started on the interchange bench but came onto the ground in the first term and immediately brought plenty of leap into the centre bounces. Chol arrived at the Suns via Richmond last year as a free agent while Casboult, after being delisted by Carlton, was picked in the rookie draft and the pair were perhaps Gold Coast's most vital across the contest in keeping in touch with Collingwood. But his miss was costly, with Ginnivan, Josh Daicos and Jack Crisp chipping in for goals to re-establish Collingwood’s 31-point lead at the final change. The Suns' tall forwards continued to cause headaches in the second quarter. Gold Coast got off to a flyer with two quick goals, but it took the Pies little time to assert their dominance. De Goey started the run, before Darcy Cameron booted two, Mihocek soccered one through and Ginnivan got his day started truly after being bumped off the ball.
