Concussion has brought Olivia Vesely’s Season Seven campaign to a close, with the midfielder coming off second-best in a head clash last weekend against Port Adelaide.
Vesely was assisted from the field after colliding with teammate Tarni White in the opening minutes of the second term, taking no further part in the game after an initial concussion test.
White, who sustained a broken nose, has been cleared to play in the Saints’ final game of the year against Adelaide at RSEA Park.
Meanwhile, Nat Exon (soreness) and Clara Fitzpatrick (knee) will need to get through both Wednesday and Friday’s training sessions to feature in Round 10.
J’Noemi Anderson (rested) is a chance to return, however recruits Grace Kelly (Achilles) and Erin McKinnon (concussion) will finish the year on the sidelines.
