St Kilda could welcome back Saoirse Lally and Carys D’Addario this weekend, with the pair a test to return as the Saints prepare to face West Coast at RSEA Park.

After making their AFLW debuts in Rounds 2 and 4 respectively, the duo will both need to get through training this week to put their hands up for selection.

Meanwhile, midfielder Olivia Vesely is set for a period on the sidelines after injuring her ankle in Sunday’s clash with Richmond.

Vesely sustained the injury late in the second quarter and was subsequently ruled out for the remainder of the game.

Scans have since revealed a high-grade ankle injury, with the 26-year-old to consult with specialists throughout the week before a return timeline is determined.
