VETERAN Geelong midfielder James Kelly is the man most likely to replace injured speedster Travis Varcoe.
The hard-bodied midfielder missed last week's match against Carlton with a calf injury after copping a knock to his Achilles tendon during his first match of the season against North Melbourne in Round 2.
Varcoe had surgery on his injured shoulder today and coach Chris Scott said the club would not take any risks with their injured star.
"He is really unfortunate he is in this position. He is going to miss three months," Scott said.
"The fortunate part is he is back running after five or six weeks, so he is going to be in pretty good condition when he is available to be involved in contact training and matches.
"Part of that is that he's back running after five or six weeks, so he's going to be in pretty good condition when he is available to be involved in contact training and matches.
"We'd love to have him in the meantime, but unfortunately we won't and that gives an opportunity to one of our young players this week.
"It's bad news for Trav but it's not the end of the world.''
Scott also said young big man Mark Blicavs could be rested against the Swans after playing the first three matches of the season.
George Horlin-Smith and Mitch Brown are also a chance to play against Sydney, Scott said.
Jared Rivers is also an outside to play after recovering well from a knee injury he picked up against Hawthorn in Round 1.
