Collingwood defender Ben Reid escaped serious injury despite jarring his knee in Sunday's 20-point pre-season cup victory over West Coast at Patersons Stadium.

| 0.8.6 (54) | Q3 | 2.7.8 (68) |

Reid looked to be in some trouble when Eagles forward Josh Kennedy crashed into his leg during the third quarter.
But the 2010 premiership defender was later cleared of any serious damage and is expected to be fit well before the round-one clash with North Melbourne on March 31.
"We weren't going to take any risks tonight so we just put him on ice,'' Collingwood coach Nathan Buckley said.
"But he should be right. All reports are he's going to be fine.''
West Coast also had an injury scare when wingman Andrew Embley succumbed to a hamstring complaint in the opening term of the 3.10.9 (96) to 1.10.7 (76) loss.
However, West Coast's medical staff believe the injury is minor and coach John Worsfold is confident Embley will be fit for the March 23 showdown against Fremantle.
"He thought he felt something grab. Hopefully he might just miss next week, and that will be it,'' Worsfold said.
Eagles wingman Matt Rosa finished on the bench with ice on his left hamstring, but Worsfold said that was nothing more than a precautionary measure.
Collingwood's third straight win of the pre-season means they will reach the final if they can beat Brisbane in Saturday night's clash at Etihad Stadium.
The Magpies were well served by Scott Pendlebury, Paul Seedsman, Alan Toovey, Heath Shaw and Dane Swan against the Eagles.
West Coast forward Mark LeCras booted four goals in just his second match back from a knee reconstruction, while skipper Darren Glass was strong in defence and Scott Selwood tallied 29 possessions and a super goal.
Collingwood entered the match missing more than half of their first-choice side, with the likes of Luke Ball, Dayne Beams, Alan Didak, Darren Jolly, Dale Thomas, Andrew Krakouer and Clinton Young among a host of players absent.
But the Pies' greater work rate and hardness at the ball proved the difference, with their pressure in the forward half a particular highlight.
The Eagles, who take on Port Adelaide in Alice Springs on Saturday, are out of the running to reach the cup final after winning just one of their three games.
Collingwood recruit Quinten Lynch was solid without starring against the Eagles, tallying 11 possessions and eight hit-outs against his former club.
