Going by their current offering

Sorry..I meant to say Armo.

On suspended players...they have listed Baker.

There site is meant to cober all players who are unavailable...whether injured or suspended.

They must have updated the site this arvo - Didn't Jimmy Gwilt play for Scorps on Friday night?

You'd think with the sizable medical staff we would get more detailed info but it seems to be much less often than previously and what we get is pretty vague - I can distictively remember the official site being updated once a week with accurate information on when to expect players back. Even the media were getting better St Kilda club injury info in the past - and regularly.

Obviously we all understand if there has been a re-assessment or players conditions change.

End of rant :lol:
