COLLINGWOOD coach Nathan Buckley was unable to shed any light on an ankle injury to captain Scott Pendlebury after the Magpies' loss to Melbourne on Queen's Birthday. Pendlebury spent time off the field in the second quarter after his ankle was stomped on and he had it heavily iced after the game. "There was a contest on half-forward. I'm not sure exactly what's come of it," Buckley said. The Pies limp in to next week's bye with a 4-8 record and several players sore, while Melbourne emerged from Monday's 46-point win with a clean bill of health. ON THE BLOCK: Does it even matter any more? Jack Frost (shoulder), Scott Pendlebury (ankle) and Ben Reid (knee) all copped knocks against Melbourne, but don't none look overly serious. Jarrod Witts was poor, Mason Cox did little and Ben Crocker was quiet. But it's a bit like the deck chairs on the Titanic isn't it? ON THE CUSP: Some good news in the rezzies. Travis Cloke was described as "outstanding" by the Collingwood website in the win over Casey Scorpions, while James Aish was prolific and hungry with 34 possessions. Adam Oxley responded to his omission by laying a team-high 12 tackles and being among his side's better players. SAM EDMUND'S FORECAST: Another game, another train wreck. What on earth is going on at Collingwood? Against Melbourne they were again they were sliced open in transition, again gave up goals out the back and again the midfield was beaten. This time there was a new problem - a horribly top-heavy forward line that made keeping the ball in its forward line virtually impossible. The bye arrives after two consecutive thrashings and the season well and truly done at 4-8. |
