Rowan Marshall is fit to tackle Hawthorn but St Kilda's casualty ward includes another big man in Dougal Howard as they prepare to take on a revitalised Hawthorn.
Veteran ruck Marshall limped off during in the Saints' 30-point loss to Fremantle last round, landing awkwardly with just minutes remaining in the Perth clash.
There were fears the 30-year-old could be sidelined, joining Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera, Jack Higgins, Max King and Mitch Owens on the injury list.
St Kilda coach Ross Lyon told AAP Marshall would be available for the Marvel Stadium match on Thursday night, but defender Howard will miss after suffering a calf injury against the Dockers.
Sharpshooter Higgins didn't make the trip west after his knee blew up, requiring minor surgery, and could also miss their last interstate match of the season, against Sydney.
