Breaking News: Darcy Moore Expected to Miss Collingwoodโ€™s Upcoming Game, Coach Craig McRae Confirms Setback Amid Risingโ€ฆ Read More๐Ÿ‘‡

In a major blow to Collingwoodโ€™s AFL campaign, star defender and club captain Darcy Moore is expected to miss the Magpiesโ€™ upcoming clash, head coach Craig McRae confirmed in a press conference earlier today. The setback comes as concerns grow over Mooreโ€™s ongoing fitness and the toll recent injuries have taken on his season.

 

Moore, known for his elite intercept marking and leadership at the back, reportedly experienced tightness during training this week. While scans have ruled out major structural damage, the clubโ€™s medical staff have opted for a cautious approach, ruling him out of the next fixture to avoid aggravating the issue.

 

โ€œDarcyโ€™s health comes first,โ€ McRae said. โ€œHeโ€™s an incredibly important part of our structure, but we want to make sure heโ€™s 100% before he returns. Thereโ€™s still a long season ahead.โ€

 

The absence of Moore will test Collingwoodโ€™s depth in defence, especially against a high-scoring opponent. Fans are hopeful the skipperโ€™s setback is only short-term, but the timing adds pressure as the Magpies look to solidify their top-eight standing. Moore is expected to be reassessed next week pending recovery progress.
