Jack Steele is back running as his quest for quick return from AC surgery continues.

The 26-year-old is aiming for a senior recall for the Saints' clash against Sydney, however his availability will be assessed closer to the time.

Jarryn Geary will not play at either level this week, resting as he manages a shoulder issue.

Dan Hannebery continues to make progress in his recovery, while Jack Hayes and Nick Coffield are tracking nicely on their respective ACL recoveries.

Meanwhile, Hunter Clark and Jack Higgins have exited AFL Health and Safety Protocols, with the latter also resuming regular training after observing AFL Concussion Protocols.
