“My gut feel is Collingwood probably wins…I think their midfield is a bit stronger,” Fagan told The Match Committee.
“You can’t underestimate West Coast but I just feel Collingwood has a lot of depth in that midfield.
“They will be able to get the ball forward and possibly starve Jack Darling and Josh Kennedy of the opportunities they need to give West Coast the edge.
“I feel also it’s an advantage for Collingwood to be playing at the MCG.”
The Magpies rank first in the AFL for disposals per game, while the Eagles rank a lowly 16th.
