The 2016 Collingwood Football Club season is the club's 120th season of senior competition in the Australian Football League (AFL). The club also fielded its reserves team in the VFL.

Squad

Players are listed by guernsey number, and 2016 statistics are for AFL regular season and finals series matches during the 2016 AFL season only. Career statistics include a player's complete AFL career, which, as a result, means that a player's debut and part or whole of their career statistics may be for another club. Statistics are correct of Round 6 of the 2016 season (1 May 2016) and are taken from AFL Tables
