Collingwood hopes to have two of its injured players available for selection against Fremantle following this week’s bye.
Jarryd Blair (ankle) and Corey Gault (concussion) did not play on the weekend but Director of Football Neil Balme says both will come into consideration for a return after the bye.
“We are pretty happy with the way Blair’s ankle has come up. We will just have to see how he goes,” Balme told Collingwood Media’s Blackmores Injury Update.
“We are reasonably confident that he will play our next game.

“Gault missed the VFL again on the weekend with concussion. He has come up very well and we are very confident that he will play next game.”
Ruckman Brodie Grundy will don a neck brace for the next fortnight as he recovers from a nasty injury sustained during last Friday’s training session.
“The good news is there’s no long-term problem with it,” Balme continued.
“Obviously we will be conservative and look after it. He’s not out of the question for playing against Fremantle but we may well be conservative on that.
“We’re very happy with the way he is.”
Of the remaining injured players, Jackson Ramsay continues to work his way through the shin complaint that has sidelined him since round five, while hamstrung pair Ben Sinclair and Nathan Freeman are closing in on a return.
