Collingwood has provided an injury update ahead of Sunday’s Round Two clash against Fremantle at Victoria Park.
Forward Eliza James suffered a syndesmosis injury on her left ankle in Friday night’s loss to Melbourne and was unable to play out the game. James is expected to be unavailable for four to six weeks.
Both Ruby Schleicher and Lauren Butler have unclear timelines as they continue to overcome foot injuries. Schleicher was unable to get up for last week’s season opener and will be further updated after main training later in the week. Butler is experiencing ongoing soreness in her foot with the Club expecting to have a clearer idea of her availability later in the week.
Midfielder Joanna Lin is still about one to two weeks away from becoming available as she also manages a foot complaint.
Charlotte Taylor continues to manage a knee injury and is still five to eight weeks away from becoming available. The Club is hopeful she will return in the backend of the season.
