Collingwood fear the worst for Jamie Elliott after the veteran forward suffered a suspected serious knee injury in a sour ending to Scott Pendlebury's record-breaking AFL appearance.
Nick Daicos starred as the Magpies celebrated Pendlebury's milestone with a hard-fought 13.14 (92) to 12.10 (82) victory in front of 90,028 fans at the MCG on Saturday.
But Elliott crumpled to the turf under pressure from Eagles defender Tylar Young in a marking contest in the dying stages and was taken off on a stretcher.
