COLLINGWOOD extended its remarkable winning run over Kuwarna, with Saturday's nailbiting four-point win making it nine on the trot for the Magpies against the Crows.

The nine-win streak might be the fifth-longest active winning streak against another club, but it hasn't been one-way traffic for the Pies, with five of their past six wins over the Crows decided by five points or less.

The two sides played out yet another thriller on Saturday at the MCG with the Magpies saluting by less than a kick after a late Jordan De Goey goal sealed the win

Meanwhile, Essendon will also be out to extend a streak of its own when it faces a side it has dominated in recent seasons at Marvel Stadium on Sunday.

North Melbourne has lost its past 10 meetings against Essendon and will be aiming for a drought-breaking victory (on multiple fronts) when the two sides meet.

Essendon's two wins over the Roos last year came by just six and nine points, and Sunday will see Ben McKay and Todd Goldstein take on their former club for the first time.

If the high-flying Bombers can extend their streak to 11, they will join Melbourne (against Gold Coast) with the equal third-longest active winning streak against another club.

Only Port Adelaide (against the Suns) and Geelong (against the Kangaroos) have longer active streaks, with 14 and 12 respectively.

The Power lost their first meeting with the Suns in 2011, but haven't been beaten by Gold Coast since.

They will face off for the first time in 2024 in round 18.

Struggling North features heavily in the list of active streaks, while the loss to the Suns in round nine means it has now lost its most recent meeting against every club.
