Collingwood has stopped short of ruling Darcy Moore out of next Friday's qualifying final against Geelong after he was cleared of damage to his troublesome left hamstring.

Moore failed to complete his comeback match last Friday, complaining of hamstring tightness in the same area he had strained six weeks earlier in round 17.

He is expected to train later this week and has 12 days to convince medical staff he's fit to tackle the Cats despite coach Nathan Buckley admitting he wasn't confident over the weekend.

"In layman's terms he hasn't reinjured it," Pies head of football Geoff Walsh told AFL.com.au on Monday.

"Our medical guys are happy with the outcome from the scans (over the weekend) and it's just tightness.

"Like every selection decision we'll see how it goes in the week before."

Injured forward Jordan De Goey was put through his paces alongside Ben Reid in a big session at the club's Olympic Park headquarters on Saturday morning.

While De Goey is a certain starter against the Cats, Reid won't get the chance to press his case for a recall with Collingwood's VFL team now finished for 2019.

The Pies are also expected to recall midfielder Steele Sidebottom after he missed the win over Essendon with a ruptured testicle.

"You'd think (he'd play) at this stage, as long as there are no complications from the surgery," Walsh said of Sidebottom.

Forward Josh Thomas was also cleared of major damage to his knee that he twisted late in the win against the Bombers.
