Collingwood star Jordan De Goey has been sent for scans after suffering another injury setback, this time to his ankle.
Channel Seven'sย Mark Steven reported on Monday night that the gun forward hurt his ankle during last week's intraclub after a teammate stepped on him.
"He's had a bit of an ankle scare, he was at scans today. I believe a teammate trotted on him during the intraclub match on Friday night that the Pies had," Stevens said.
"He's had a bit of a test today, nothing too serious. But the Pies say tonight that he will be monitored and could miss Friday's hitout against Geelong.
"So a bit of a minor setback for Jordan De Goey."

The 24-year old suffered an abdomen strain earlier this month but it barely hampered his pre-season.
De Goey this off-season re-signed with the Pies on a two-year extension believed to be worth around $750,000 a season.
He missed seven matches last year due to a finger injury.
