St Kilda coach Ross Lyon has revealed there’s uncertainty around Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera’s availability for next round after missing Saturday’s loss to Gold Coast with a lower leg corkie.
Wanganeen-Milera had travelled to Darwin for the Suns clash but was a late withdrawal, having picked up the knock in the Round 8 win over Carlton.
“I thought he’d play, he thought he’d play, he wanted to play tonight,” Lyon said.
“There was a little bit of soreness, we thought it was a corkie, so he had a scan.
“There was a little bit of bleeding and they (medical team) think it’s a corkie still.”
The Saints take on lowly Richmond in Round 10 on Sunday, with Wanganeen-Milera not certainty to be available.

Lyon added: “They (medical team) couldn’t make a definitive decision, so we need another week to let it settle. We’ll find out during the week.”
The Saints lost Callum Wilkie mid-game against the Suns after copping a knee to his lower back from Ben King.
On Wilkie, Lyon said: “It was interesting to see our team without him. Hopefully he gets up for Richmond.”
