‘It's a car crash': Horror collision between Jeremy Howe and Jai Newcombe stuns the MCG
Jeremy Howe and Jai Newcombe have both been left in a bad way following a horror head clash in the early stages of Collingwood's huge Thursday night clash with Hawthorn. Just over one minute into the first quarter at the MCG, Mitch Lewis took a mark and kicked the ball into space coming out of Hawthorn's defence, leading to a chase between Howe and Newcombe. FOX FOOTY, available on Kayo Sports, is the only place to watch every match of every round in the 2025 Toyota AFL Premiership Season LIVE in 4K, with no ad-breaks during play. New to Kayo?

The two players arrived at about the same time and made a huge impact, with returning Pies star Howe seemingly knocked out instantly and left flat on his back as Newcombe collapsed on all fours. 'Lewis puts it into a turnover situation and Newcombe and Howe collide in front of the benches,' Mark Howard said on Fox Footy. 'They're both down, Howe looks worst of all, Newcombe holding his head. Big clash.' David King said immediately: 'They've got to stop the game. They've got to stop the game. He's out.' Jack Riewoldt added: 'Oh, Jeremy Howe has not moved.' Howe, 35, was making his return to the Collingwood side following three weeks out with a groin injury. 'Back into the side for the first time since round 18, such an important player,' Howard said. 'It was a ball positioned directly between the two of them. 'Newcombe cannoned into Howe coming in the opposite direction and it was an enormous clash between the two.' The game was stopped for more than five minutes as Collingwood's medical staff attended to Howe before he was taken from the field on a medicab. The veteran put his hands to his face and then was seen moving his fingers as the medicab took him from the ground to applause from the big crowd. 'Yeah it's a car crash,' King said during a replay of the incident. 'Credit to both players, Howe bodylined the ball and Newcombe put himself in harm's way. 'Incredibly brave but he just had a head clash there. It's sickening to watch. 'This is what these guys subject themselves to at the highest level. A clash at that speed.' King was then thinking of those watching on when he added: 'Just remember, these guys, they get the very best of care. 'Unbelievable medical expertise out there and it's tough to watch for family and friends at home, but this is what these guys do.' Howe was immediately subbed out of the game, while Newcombe was also assessed by the Hawthorn medical staff before returning to the match midway through the first term.
