Toby Greene is back from his infamous six-week suspension just in time for GWS to take on St Kilda… but with the Giants 1-4, his return might have come too late. Join The Roar for live scores from 7:50pm (AEST).
The Giants have been counting the cost of Greene’s absence ever since he was handed his suspension for bumping umpire Matt Stevic during their thrilling elimination final win over Sydney last year.
With just one win in his time out, the club’s struggles have piled pressure on coach Leon Cameron; no doubt Greene, officially named co-captain during the summer after excelling as a stand-in for Stephen Coniglio last year, is hungry to make amends.
The star forward’s return comes at a vital time, with spearhead Jesse Hogan managed out of trip to Canberra. Ruckman Braydon Preuss is also back from a one-week suspension, while defender Isaac Cumming has left COVID isolation to front up.
The Giants’ start to the year couldn’t have been more different to that of the Saints, who have won four games in a row to sit pretty in the top four.
In red-hot form and with key contributors across the board, from captain Jack Steele to goalsneak Jack Higgins and the speedy Jack Sinclair (yes, they have a lot of Jacks), the Saints will fancy their chances of continuing their run against the struggling Giants.
But Greene’s impact on this team is well known – can he bring about an instant lift for last year’s semi-finalists?
