COLLINGWOOD acting captain Scott Pendlebury called his teammates cheats - and there is evidence to support him.
The Magpies can be exposed as one of the biggest front-running sides in the competition, with their opponents scoring with ease from turnovers and stoppages in the Pies' defensive half.
Statistics supplied by AFL analyst Champion Data reveal an alarming set of figures that threaten to derail Collingwood's season.
Pies leaking points at a worrying rate
In what has been a worrying start to their campaign, the Pies have:
CONCEDED more points from opposition clearances (124) in their back half than any other side.
LEAKED 186 points from turnovers in their back half. Only Melbourne and Greater Western Sydney have conceded more from this source.
GIVEN up an average 106.4 points a game, fourth most in the league.
Collingwood legend Peter Daicos said the Pies had no reason to panic five weeks in, but there was "clearly cause for concern".
"They're not getting their hands on the pill and when they do they're not using it as well as they used to and not cutting sides up," Daicos said.
"Against the heavyweights they're being shown up."
