Collingwood’s equal-leading goal kicker for season 2024, Brody Mihocek, will miss two to three weeks after scans revealed a minor, grade one strain to his hamstring. The forward was able to play out the rest of Friday’s win after sustaining the injury early in the last quarter, but his movement was limited.


Beau McCreery is working through the twelve step concussion protocols after suffering a head knock in Friday’s win. A further update will be provided next week on the progress of his recovery.


Young defender Tew Jiath picked up an ankle injury in Collingwood’s VFL defeat to Southport on Saturday. The 2023 draftee was able to complete the game,but was sorer than expected in recovery. Scans have revealed a minor grade syndesmosis and Jiath will be in a moonboot for the rest of the week and it’s expected he will miss two to three games.


Jordan De Goey has been ruled out of Sunday’s clash with West Coast with the groin issue that also kept him out of last week’s win. It’s expected the midfielder will begin running towards the back end of next week and the Magpies’ Medical team are confident he will be available for Round 10.


Midfielder Tom Mitchell was expected to return this week after missing last week’s game with a foot injury, but a case of appendicitis has hospitalised the 30-year-old and he will subsequently miss Sunday’s clash against West Coast. Once Mitchell receives the all-clear from the specialist he has been seeing for the appendicitis, he will commence a running program. Once the midfielder increases his running loads, he should be available for next week’s Round 10 clash.


Josh Eyre is progressing well in his return from a hamstring injury but has been in a holding pattern in terms across the last couple of weeks in terms of progressing past 85 to 90 percent running speed, which isn’t uncommon when it comes to long-term hamstring injuries like his. Over the next couple of weeks, the defender is expected to progress his running speed should he meet some gym markers, before returning to full training in about two weeks’ time and playing in three to four weeks.


Ruckman Oscar Steene is now walking comfortably in a moon boot and has started some light rehab activities, including a strength program, following his successful toe ligament surgery. Steene will be in the moonboot for another three weeks, before being able to prepare his running.


Key forward Dan McStay is only a couple of weeks away from reaching the six-month milestone post ACL surgery. At that point in time, the 28-year-old will have some further reviews of his progress. He is currently in a holding pattern when it comes to his running, speed and agility loads, but ticking every box so far. After the six-month mark, he will progress to the next stage of his rehabilitation which includes contact training.
 
Jeez Josh Eyre really did a number on that hamstring
Seems its a confidence issue., just to get him past this stage where he needs to do 100% sprinting. But no rush, you want him at 100% even if it takes a little extra time
 
Part of me wonders if we hold over De Goey and Mitchell until the Bulldogs game

Back ourselves to get the job done the next 3 weeks and bring them in for the Dogs midfield and be sure they’re as close to 100% as possible

No,I wouldn’t be doing that.The Adelaide and Fremantle games are both going to be very hard,and I wouldn’t fancy our chances of winning if they’re both out.If they’re cleared by the medical staff,then they should come straight back in.We need them.

That's a hard read, quite a butchering of grammar.

I think he means that sometimes when you get to this part of your rehab. Your hamstring muscle can sometimes take a couple weeks to get to full speed like Oliver last year.
