Collingwood star Mason Cox has been taken to hospital after a training accident.<\/p>\n
AFL Media confirmed that the Magpies' Wednesday morning session was halted when Cox was on the receiving end of an accidental blow to the throat.<\/p>\n
Cox was then taken to hospital by ambulance as a precaution.<\/p>\n
