Carlisle could miss the rest of the season if he undergoes back surgery, according to Daniel Cherry of The Age.
ANALYSIS
Carlisle hasn't played since Round 6 and remains out indefinitely, whether he undergoes surgery or not. He's out of contract at the end of 2021 and will need to prove his fitness to earn a new deal from the Saints or elsewhere.

Listed as emergency
Carlisle holds an emergency designation for Thursday's Community Series game versus the Blues, Chris Nice of the Saints' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Carlisle appears ready for the start of the 2021 campaign after his 2020 season ended early following the birth of his child. While he's unlikely to take part in the Community Series affair, he figures to be included in the lineup for the Round 1 clash with GWS.

Leaves hub
Carlisle left the Saints' hub Monday after the birth of his child.
ANALYSIS
Carlisle remained with the team as long as he could, but he should miss the rest of the AFL finals series after leaving the hub. Dylan Roberton and Josh Battle could see increased roles for the Saints going forward with Carlisle and Patrick Ryder (hamstring) unavailable.

Solid production Monday
Carlisle amassed 12 disposals (seven kicks, five handballs), five marks and four tackles in Monday's 78-55 victory over Adelaide.
ANALYSIS
Carlisle was solid for the Saints, helping them to a serviceable victory. The former Bomber has been a crucial addition to the St.Kilda backline, providing them with the resilience they have been lacking previously. St.Kilda are much-improved as a team and would not look out of place, taking to the field during finals time.
