COLLINGWOOD captain Scott Pendlebury faces a nervous wait to find out whether he badly injured his right hand in the 15-point win over Gold Coast on Saturday.
The 29-year-old received treatment at the interchange area late in the third quarter and finished the game with his hand taped.
Pendlebury, who had scans on Sunday, said he was hopeful he would be cleared of serious damage.
"Anytime you come and get a scan, it's never good," Pendlebury told Channel Seven on Sunday evening.
"So hopefully it's on the lesser end and I can play this week."
Collingwood takes on West Coast at Etihad Stadium next Sunday.
