SAINTS’ pack is expected to be bolstered by the return of Sia Soliola for this weekend’s visit to Wakefield.
The second rower has been out of action for two months after suffering a foot injury in the Exiles loss to England in June.
Saints coach Nathan Brown said: "He should be fit to play this week. He has done well in his rehabilitation and his return is good for the club as he adds strike and experience."
On-loan scrum half Gareth O'Brien, who was absent from the side that defeated London, will sit out another match after being carried off in consecutive weeks against Wigan and Catalan with head injuries.
Brown, meanwhile, revealed James Roby is nearing a return from an ankle injury.
The Saints coach added: “The advice we have is he needs to sit out three weeks. This will be the second of the three he will miss.”
