How do you solve a problem like Marcus Bontempelli?
Out to kick their season into top gear, Collingwood must somehow contain an in-form Bontempelli when they face the Western Bulldogs at Marvel Stadium on Saturday night.
Both sides - in contention for a finals wildcard spot - are struggling for consistency, with the Bulldogs (6-5) holding a slight edge to sit ninth above the 10th-placed Magpies (5-5-1).
Collingwood fought off a spirited West Coast challenge to mark Scott Pendlebury's record-breaking AFL match with victory, but coach Craig McRae has been forced to make at least three changes to his side.
Captain Darcy Moore (hamstring) is injured again, alongside Jamie Elliott (knee) and William Hayes (shoulder), with Charlie West (omitted) also among the changes.
