Darcy Moore is in danger of missing the remainder of the season with a serious knee injury.
It can be revealed that Collingwood’s star defender has suffered a Grade 2 PCL injury.
It is the same severity that has sidelined Essendon midfielder Andrew McGrath for 8-12 weeks.
Moore was scanned today and will now face a race against time to make it back before the end of the year.
The injury to the 2020 All-Australian stopper is a cruel blow to a Collingwood side that saw Nathan Buckley off in style with a shock win over ladder leaders Melbourne.
The Pies have won their last two matches after getting within 10 points of Geelong and one point of Port Adelaide.
Moore has been a critical part of the resurgence after being trialled as a forward earlier in the season.
