COLLINGWOOD coach Nathan Buckley says star midfielder Dale Thomas is still a "couple of months away" from a return, as he battles to prove his fitness before the start of the season.

Thomas has been significantly hobbled by an ankle injury throughout the Magpies' pre-season training, which stems from off-season ankle surgery.

The latest timeline puts in doubt Thomas's ability to be ready to face North Melbourne in round one on March 31.
