Five Magpies have had lines drawn through their seasons as the home and away campaign nears an end.
Vice-captain Tyson Goldsack (knee) will not feature again in season 2015.
Nor will developing quartet Nathan Freeman (hamstring), Tim Broomhead (shoulder), Jackson Ramsay (shin) and Brenden Abbott (shoulder).
Goldsack, who has played just twice since round 13, joined the club’s coaching staff for Saturday’s 72-point win over Richmond in the VFL.
“Tyson has been struggling with that knee tendonitis for some weeks,” Director of Football Neil Balme told Collingwood Media’s Blackmores Injury Update.
“We have finally decided to help him – he will have some surgery this week.
“Obviously he will take a while to get over that but he should be fine to jump into the pre-season for next year. It’s disappointing for Goldy.”
The 28-year-old returned to the VFL against North Ballarat a fortnight ago, having played just one of the past eight senior games.
The one player on the injury list who may yet return this year is Corey Gault.
A groin/ hip problem has kept Gault sidelined for the past fortnight, but Balme expects him to be available for selection this weekend.
