Collingwood Outclasses West Coast in Dominant Round 16 Display
Wow, what a game we witnessed between Collingwood and West Coast in Round 16 of the 2025 Toyota AFL Premiership Season. If you’re a Magpies fan, this one was a delight from start to finish. Collingwood came into this clash with real momentum, and they showed no signs of slowing down, putting on a clinical and commanding performance that overwhelmed the struggling Eagles.
From the first bounce, you could sense the intensity from the Pies. Their pressure around the ball was relentless, forcing turnovers and denying West Coast any real space to move. It was that classic Collingwood brand of football — fast, fierce, and ferocious. The Magpies were switched on in every part of the ground, and it showed.

One of the standout moments was young debutant Charlie West making an unforgettable entrance into AFL history, nailing his first goal with his first kick. That moment had the Collingwood faithful roaring. It’s the kind of fairytale debut every player dreams of, and Charlie absolutely nailed it. Talk about joining the club in style.
West Coast, on the other hand, just couldn’t match the pace or precision. There were glimpses of individual brilliance, but as a collective unit, the Eagles struggled to get any real foothold in the contest. Their errors were quickly punished by a ruthless Collingwood outfit that wasn’t in the mood to show mercy.
Craig McRae summed it up perfectly post-match: “We came here for four points. We didn’t come here for style points.” But truth be told, they might’ve done both. It wasn’t just a win; it was a message — Collingwood are in serious business mode as we edge closer to the finals.
This win not only consolidates Collingwood’s position in the top tier of the ladder but also serves as a stark reminder of the gulf in class between the top contenders and the teams still finding their identity. With finals on the horizon, the Magpies are soaring, while West Coast is left searching for answers.
If this performance is anything to go by, Collingwood is gearing up for a powerful finish to the season.
