Saints skipper Steele to miss a month with a fractured collarbone

St Kilda skipper Jack Steele will have surgery on Monday to fix a fractured collarbone that is expected to keep him out for the next four weeks.

The 27-year-old played out the match after picking up the injury, a big effort as he led the Saints to an upset win over the Western Bulldogs, but he will be sorely missed in the next month.

However, the Saints have overcome a long injury list in the first two rounds with strong wins over Fremantle and the Western Bulldogs in an outstanding start to Ross Lyon’s return as senior coach.
