Jimmy Bartel and Matthew Lloyd have both shared their thoughts on Collingwood ahead of their Opening Round clash against GWS on Sunday afternoon.

While Lloyd is “unsure” on the Pies in 2025, Bartel thinks they are set for a bounce back year.

“I’ve got them as a top four side,” Bartel said on Wide World of Sports.

Press PLAY to hear him explain why 

“They should be four wins better, which actually puts them as a top four side.”
