Much has changed since Collingwood and Carlton clashed in round three. The Magpies were humiliated by 60 points, but they used that devastating result as the catalyst for a 10-game winning streak. On the other hand, the Blues had gone from premiership favourites to battling for a spot in the top eight. But the result was much as the same as that Friday night in April, with the Magpies losing for the first time since that eventful encounter. The Blues, led by captain Chris Judd, stunned Collingwood to storm to a 23-point win and get their season back on track. The win eased pressure on Blues coach Brett Ratten, who had come under intense scrutiny in recent weeks as Carlton’s premiership campaign faltered. In an added blow for the Magpies, midfielder Sharrod Wellingham was reported for a hit on Kade Simpson during the third quarter, which left the Blue with severe concussion and a broken jaw. Carlton ruckman Shaun Hampson was subbed out of the game with a season-ending knee injury in the first quarter.

COACHES COMMENTS
Nathan Buckley (Coll): There's been patches in our recent weeks that we were looking to improve on and [where] we probably gave the opposition a look. But I would have thought that the patches we had tonight were good patches and the large majority of them were poor patches.
Brett Ratten (Carl): Let's take away the opposition, I think it was the way we played the game. I thought it was outstanding, I thought our effort and our intensity to maintain that over four quarters was brilliant. It's always nice against the arch-enemy, but at the end of the day that's how we want to play football and that was very pleasing.
Umpires: Donlon, Findlay, McInerney
