 Collingwood Magpies could see their 2010 AFL odds drift after drawing a tough fixture list for next year.

The Pies face a tough task if they are again to make it to the top four, playing the top three sides from 2009 twice next term.

Furthermore they will play five of last year's top eight twice in 2010 and face Hawthorn in two ties.

Quoted by AFL.com Pies coach Michael Malthouse said: "On first appearance, it looks daunting.

"You know we're playing the top three sides twice, whereas I think the others are only playing each other once, so it's a bit of a mystery draw."

However, he added the club was powerless when it came to the draw and couldn't do anything "except play".

Betfair's AFL betting market currently has Collingwood at 15.50 to be crowned Premiers next year, with St Kilda the current favourites at 4.30, with last year's winners Geelong at 4.50.

The betting exchange has also opened its market on who will make the top eight in 2010, with Collingwood at 1.38, which has drifted from around 1.30.

Betfair's wooden spoon market has North Melbourne Kangaroos as the favourites to end up at the bottom of the pile on 3.30.
