Sandringham's winning streak has come to an end after going down to Collingwood by 17 points at the Holden Centre on Sunday afternoon.

Despite a strong four-goal showing to open proceedings, the visitors couldn't curb the Magpies after quarter-time and struggled to combat the influence of major ball-winners Tom Wilson (31 disposals), Brayden Sier (30) and Callum Brown (29). 

The 11.15 (81) to 10.3 (63) result came off the back of the Magpies' dominance at stoppage (44-23) and weight of possession (+119), with a six-goal second term and four majors from Jack Ginnivan solidifying their lead for the rest of the game.

Darragh Joyce (22 disposals, eight rebound-50s, five marks) continued his good form to be the backbone of Sandringham’s defensive half, while Oscar Clavarino (17 disposals) also proved influential down back taking a team-high eight marks.

Joyce had his hands full throughout the game as the home side pressed its forward assault, but the Zebras managed to prevent the margin from ballooning out after half-time despite their opposition's ascendancy.

Although the Zebras struggled to get the game on their terms, Dean Kent put on a classy display in his second game back from a lengthy battle with concussion. Showcasing speed and grit, Kent collected 18 disposals and added much-needed grunt to the midfield with six tackles and three clearances.

Captain Daniel Coffield was also commanding on the wing in his side’s loss, displaying leadership alongside a solid performance of 17 disposals and one goal.

Sandringham capitalised on its forward entries with Sam Dunnell, Jack Lonie and Cooper Sharman combining for six goals throughout the day, with a spectacular snap from Lonie late in the third term allowing the visitors to keep a grasp on the game.

Second-gamer Cooper Sharman (nine disposals, two goals) tried to incite a comeback in the dying minutes with a late goal to put his side within three goals, but it was too late for the Zebras to flip the result back in their favour.

Sandringham will look to bounce back after Sunday's disappointing loss when it returns home to face Essendon next Sunday at Wilson Storage Trevor Barker Oval.
