CibbuanoPies play waiting game with Holland

COLLINGWOOD remains unsure as to when midfielder Brodie Holland will return from an achilles injury.
Holland has managed to play just one game in 2008 following his recovery from the persistent heel complaint that ended his 2007 season in round 13.
The 28-year-old played in Collingwood's round five clash against North Melbourne but has managed only a handful of VFL matches since then.
The former Fremantle Docker has been listed as "one to two weeks" from resuming on the club's injury list, but sports science director David Buttifant admitted it could be more than that.
"We'd like to see him back in a few weeks, but it's one of those things where there's no guarantee," Buttifant said.
"If he's back in two weeks, fantastic, but I think it might be a bit longer than that."
