Both Jack Higgins and Jarryn Geary will observe the league’s concussion protocols following head knocks over the weekend.

Higgins was felled by Richmond youngster Hugo Ralphsmith in the third-quarter of the Saints’ win on Sunday afternoon at Marvel, while Geary left the ground in the second term of Sandringham’s VFL victory mere hours earlier.

Meanwhile, Jack Billings is continuing his hamstring rehabilitation, Dan Hannebery has returned to the club following surgery on his injured calf and Hunter Clark’s progress following shoulder surgery remains steady.
