Jade Gresham has been withdrawn from Sunday's match against Adelaide due to injury, being one of two omissions for the Saints this weekend.
The on-baller was taken out of the line-up after failing a fitness test at this morning's main training session, with Leo Connolly taking his place in the squad as an emergency. Gresham was subbed out of last weekend's game against North Melbourne after receiving a knock to his previously injured PCL.
UPDATE: Jade Gresham has been replaced by Leo Connolly in Sunday's squad after failing a fitness test this morning.
