St Kilda pair Shane Savage and Farren Ray will be available for selection for Saturday’s clash with the Crows at Adelaide Oval.
Former Hawk Savage was concussed late in the first term of the Saints’ comeback win over the Bulldogs and was immediately subbed out of the contest.
Ray is yet to play a game this season after tearing his right hamstring in the club’s first NAB Challenge game during the pre-season.
“We did need one bloke who needed to have a concussion test and that was Shane Savage,” Head physio Andrew Wallis said.
“He passed that this morning (Tuesday), so he’s available for selection.”
Ex-Bulldog Ray said he’s back to full fitness.
“I’m happy to be back because it’s been a long stint in rehab,” Ray said.
“It was a bit of a setback in NAB 1 and now my hamstring is feeling really good.”
Meanwhile, Daniel Markworth is three weeks away from a return and Arryn Siposs six weeks away as both men recover from should surgery. The duo are already back training with the main group excluding contact work.
Seb Ross is likely to require another week in his recovery from a hamstring injury.
With just three players on the sidelines, St Kilda boasts one of the shortest injury lists in the competition. Adelaide currently has 13 players on its official injury list.
