AFL:Demons counting cost from epic King's Birthday win

Brody Mihocek's neck injury is the most serious among several concerns for Melbourne out of their epic AFL win.

Captain Max Gawn made it through the King's Birthday blockbuster against Collingwood with a sore shoulder and has five days before their next game against Essendon.

Match-winning midfielder Kysaiah Pickett will come under video scrutiny for a potential trip on Collingwood defender Brayden Maynard.

The Magpies hard man fell in the incident and dislocated his shoulder for the second time on Monday. That forced Maynard out of the game.

Mihocek was taken to hospital for scans after he was accidentally hurt in a tackle from Billy Frampton. Play was held up for 10 minutes before the former Collingwood forward was stretchered from the field.
