CLASSY Fremantle half-back Stephen Hill has failed to prove his fitness for Saturday night's clash with St Kilda.
Hill came off late in last round's 77-point loss to Richmond due to quad tightness and will miss his second game for the year.
The 28-year-old's absence comes after the Dockers also lost rebounding defender Nathan Wilson (back soreness) following the Tigers defeat.
Ryan Nyhuis comes into the 22 for his first game this season to replace Hill.
The Saints – aiming to become the first interstate team to upset Freo at home in 2018 - will go in unchanged at Optus Stadium.
