Ruckman Jack Hayes and small forward Jack Higgins will both return to the senior side to face the Suns on Saturday afternoon. 

Hayes is expected to assist in ruck duties in the absence of suspended Saint Paddy Ryder, while Higgins returns to the line-up after missing Round 4 with concussion. 

Defender Jimmy Webster will also miss due to AFL Health and Safety Protocols. 

Last week's medical sub Ryan Byrnes, Tom Highmore, Tom Campbell and Leo Connolly have been named as emergencies.

Jade Gresham will celebrate his 100th AFL match on Saturday. 

St Kilda will look to make it 4-1 as it takes on Gold Coast this Saturday 16 April, with the opening bounce at 1:45pm.
