Questions to ponder ahead of Round 3: Can the Pies be re-heated, Are Port the real deal, Can Jezza's form last for the Cats?
Collingwood look far off the conquering team of 2023 and one aspect of real concern is their struggles in defence.
Richmond and Port Adelaide have been fined by the AFL for failing to advise drug testers of player whereabouts.
The Tigers have been fined $5000 after cancelling a scheduled training session and not advising the AFL or the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority (ASADA).
And Port have copped a $2000 fine for not immediately notifying the league and ASADA that an ill player would be missing a training session.
The fines were announced by the AFL on Monday.
“AFL players may be tested 365 days of the year for WADA (World Anti-Doping Agency) prohibited drugs,” the AFL said in a statement.
“Under the operation of the AFL’s code with ASADA it is the club that is sanctioned for the failure to provide complete up-to-date whereabouts information at all times for testing purposes.”
