Magpies key forward to miss flag decider due to knee injuryVice-captain Taylor Adams also in significant doubt
Collingwood have ruled Daniel McStay out of the AFL grand final after scans confirmed the key forward suffered a knee injury. McStay kicked two vital goals in the Magpies’ thrilling one-point preliminary-final win – 8.10 (58) to 8.9 (57) – over GWS on Friday night before hurting his right knee during the third quarter.
McStay cut a despondent figure amid otherwise jubilant scenes in the Collingwood change rooms after the match. Scans on Saturday revealed the 28-year-old suffered a high-grade medial strain in his knee, ruling him out for up to eight weeks.
