Pratt adds to North's injury woes
May 2nd 2009 02:12
NORTH MELBOURNE defender Daniel Pratt will miss up to two matches after suffering a knee injury in the 52-point loss to Collingwood at Etihad Stadium on Friday night.
Kangaroos coach Dean Laidley said Pratt 'tweaked' the medial ligament in his knee and faces one to two weeks on the sidelines.
The loss of Pratt comes just a week after serious injuries to skipper Brent Harvey and promising youngster Lachlan Hansen.
Harvey is out for three months with an elbow injury while Hansen is expected to miss four to six weeks with a hamstring tear.
In some good news for the embattled Roos, lively small forward Matt Campbell is likely to return for the clash against Port Adelaide after missing the loss to the Magpies with a hamstring strain but classy midfielder Daniel Wells is only a 50-50 chance to play.
