St Kilda’s are counting the cost of their upset win over AFL premiers Collingwood, with Max King handed a one-match ban for a high hit on Finlay Macrae, while Liam Henry and Mason Wood will each miss a significant period of footy. The Saints lost Wood and Henry to injuries during their pulsating 15-point win at the MCG on Thursday night. And now King, who had a big influence with three goals against the Magpies, is set to join them on the sidelines for the Round 3 clash with Essendon.
Wood was stretchered off and taken to hospital early in Thursday night’s 15-point win over the premiers, after colliding with teammate Zaine Cordy and landing heavily when the pair flew for a mark. Play was held up for several minutes before medical personnel could take Wood off the field. “He’s such a good lad. It was pretty courageous,” coach Ross Lyon said post-match. “He knocked himself out and broke a collarbone. We’re concerned about him.
