<\/a><\/p>\n

Collingwood defender Brayden Maynard<\/a> injured his quad during the Magpies’ main session on Friday.<\/p>\n

Scans confirmed there was no structural damage, but he will be on light duties for at least the next few days.<\/p>\n

Exciting untried youngster Harry DeMattia<\/a>, meanwhile suffered a head knock and is set to enter concussion protocols.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It follows the club confirming on Thursday that Darcy Moore’s recovery from injury was tracking slower than expected putting him in doubt for Opening Round, while Beau McCreery<\/a>, Lachie Sullivan<\/a> and Dan McStay, Jeremy Howe<\/a> and Isaac Quaynor<\/a> are also currently away from main training.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, hard working tall utility Billy Frampton<\/a> completed only light running during the session.<\/p>\n

Jordan De Goey<\/a> looked strong through the midfield and worked hard both ways, setting himself a strong base for 2026, having not missed a pre-season session.<\/p>\n

Noah Howes<\/a> was a strong target inside 50 during match simulation, while Jamie Elliott<\/a> caught the eye, Josh and Nick Daicos<\/a> linked up on several occasions and Tyan Prindable<\/a> was again the most impressive young player as he pushes for an early season debut.<\/p>\n
