COLLINGWOOD captain Scott Pendlebury had surgery on Saturday for a finger injury suffered in Friday night's momentous comeback win over West Coast at Optus Stadium.

It is unclear at this stage how long the 31-year-old will be out for.

PIES IN A THRILLER Full match coverage and stats

Pendlebury hurt the middle finger on his left hand during the Eagles clash but played on and put together a huge final term to help the Pies snap a two-game losing skid over the reigning premier.

The silky onballer is averaging 28 disposals and was ranked No.4 in the competition for inside-50s per game as of Sunday.

He is in contention for a spot in the Virgin Australia AFL All Australian side, an accolade he was awarded for five years straight between 2010-14.

It's a huge blow for the second-placed Magpies.

Gun defender Darcy Moore suffered yet another hamstring strain against West Coast, Dayne Beams is out indefinitely as he recovers from hip surgery and a mental health battle, and electric forward Jaidyn Stephenson won't be back until finals as he serves a ban for gambling.

However, Taylor Adams returned from an adductor injury via the VFL on Saturday and collected 16 disposals and a goal while playing three quarters and came through unscathed.

He looks likely to return for next Saturday's game with Greater Western Sydney at Giants Stadium, a match that will have massive top-four implications.
