Magpies lose key forward
COLLINGWOOD have been dealt a huge injury blow with star forward Jordan
De Goey ruled out of tomorrow’s AFL blockbuster clash with Richmond.
Magpies coach Nathan Buckley says De Goey has developed bone stress in his lower leg and will be sidelined for at least two weeks.
The 22-year-old pulled up sore after copping a knock during last week’s win against North Melbourne.
“We’re told it will be two weeks before we can get him back and have a look at where that has settled (but) he should be right to complete the season as it stands,” coach Nathan Buckley said.
De Goey, who this month signed a lucrative two-year contract extension, is tipped to earn All-Australian selection for the first time.
