INJURED Collingwood star Dayne Beams has revealed plans to return to football within the next two to three weeks.
Speaking for the first time about the torn quad muscle that sidelined him for the past five games, Beams said he had plans to step up his running this week before aiming to return via the VFL in a fortnight.
He suffered the injury the day before Collingwood's first game against North Melbourne and had a slight setback a few weeks later which brought about a more conservative approach from the medical team.
"I'm not too far away," Beams said yesterday.
"I have just got back into training and things are looking positive again.
"Obviously, with the little re-bleed that I had, they have gone the ultra-conservative path now. It's a long year, so I have got to look after it, and hopefully come back in the second half of the season bigger and better."
Beams said he would likely "step it up a bit this week and see how my legs feel."
"My ambitions compared to the physios' are completely different. I am hoping for a couple of weeks, but obviously I will have to come back through the VFL.
"I am looking at about two or three weeks."
The 23-year-old midfielder said the injury had been "extremely frustrating", but it had been put into perspective by the season-ending knee injury suffered by his brother, Brisbane's Claye Beams.
Dayne said: "I had never torn a muscle before, so it was a different feeling.
"Claye is laying up on the couch and it is just so disappointing for him. I've really got nothing to complain about."
Beams is confident the Magpies would hit back hard from their Anzac Day loss in Friday night's game against St Kilda.
