While the Crows dropped Sholl on Thursday night, a persistent and strong SANFL campaign from Jackson Hately was again not rewarded, with the former Giant named as an emergency.
The Saints lost key pair Seb Ross and Tim Membrey, who have returned to Victoria for family reasons and were listed as 'managed', while regaining defender Ben Long, Jack Lonie and Paul Hunter.
Earlier, Gold Coast defender Sam Collins withdrew from the Suns team ahead of Saturday's clash against Fremantle after falling short in his bid to overcome an ankle injury.
The key defender has been replaced in the 22 by third-year key defender Caleb Graham, with forward Josh Corbett named as the medical substitute.
