Neither Gilbert, from whose personal computer photos of a naked Riewoldt were taken, nor Nick Dal Santo, the other Saint who had a naked photo of himself plastered across the internet, will be making a public appearance to explain the circumstances, as Riewoldt did yesterday.

But St Kilda chief executive Michael Nettlefold said the Saints would ensure that there was no lingering bad blood between five-time best-and-fairest winner Riewoldt and Gilbert, who expected to play alongside his captain in the Saints' forward line next year.
''In the normal course of running a club we'll work through those issues,'' Nettlefold said yesterday. ''They're both grown men, both professionals, and we'll be working with them in terms of ensuring we get the sort of team outcome we need. That's what we do every day, anyway.''
Riewoldt yesterday was candid about his feelings for his teammate, whom he said had failed to delete, as promised, a photograph of Riewoldt taken on an end-of-season trip a year ago.
