St Kilda midfielder David Armitage ‘may need surgery’ on groin injury

?

St Kilda midfielder David Armitage is out indefinitely.

The inside ball-winner may even need surgery.

Saints coach Alan Richardson revealed the news on Friday, saying Armitage was set for an extended spell on the sidelines.

‘He’ll probably miss a bit of footy, unfortunately,’ Richardson said.

However, in a boost, the club has named reigning best and fairest winner Jack Steven this week.
