GEELONG has been forced into making a late change ahead of its Round 22 clash with St Kilda at GMHBA Stadium on Saturday.
Defender Tom Stewart is a late withdrawal after injuring his foot at training on Thursday.
"Tommy Stewart sustained a foot injury in a marking contest at Thursday's training," GM of Football Simon Lloyd says.
"He's not available this week and we'll consult relevant specialists over the coming week."
Sam Simpson will replace Stewart in Geelong's 22-man lineup and will play just his second AFL match for the season with his last coming against Richmond in Round 8.
Geelong's match against St Kilda will be televised on Fox Footy with the first bounce at 4.35pm.
