2020 started off well for the Pies, but with three games left, they are clinging onto the bottom half of the eight.
It seems that they can't get a break with injuries, and with a forward-line which struggles without its stars, a move for North Melbourne's Ben Brown could be on the cards.
Despite having a woeful 2020, the 27-year-old Tasmanian could be looking for a fresh start, where he has the potential to become the focal point of the Collingwood forward-line.
