Richmond Tigers vs St Kilda Saints AFL Round 23 Expert Tips

The loss of Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera is a significant blow for St Kilda, but the Saints should have enough midfield depth and experience to respond against Richmond and keep their slim wildcard hopes alive.

Richmond Tigers vs St Kilda Saints AFL 2026 Round 23 FAQs

St Kilda has dominated this matchup in recent seasons, winning eight of the past nine meetings with Richmond. Seven of those victories have come by more than 22.5 points, including a 36-point win when the sides met earlier this season.

St Kilda -22.5 is therefore the preferred match bet. The FootyBets.com.au model projects the Saints to win by 28.4 points, while the secondary projection has them winning 96.2-66.7 for a 29.5-point margin. Richmond has also lost four of its past five matches, with three of those defeats coming by at least 46 points.

Wanganeen-Milera's hamstring injury creates a major hole in St Kilda's midfield and transition game, but Max Hall looks capable of absorbing some of that responsibility. Hall produced 30 disposals and 10 clearances against Carlton after Wanganeen-Milera went down early and should again spend significant time around the ball.

That makes Hall 25+ disposals an appealing player market despite his season average sitting below that mark. He also recorded 26 disposals when these teams met in Round 10.

Hall's increased midfield involvement has not stopped him impacting the scoreboard. He kicked two goals against Carlton and has now recorded 2+ goals in three of his past four matches, making another multiple-goal performance an attractive option against Richmond.

Richmond Tigers Form

Richmond enters Round 23 sitting 17th with a 3-18 record after pushing Adelaide all the way in difficult conditions.

The Tigers led by 13 points during the third quarter before the Crows responded, eventually falling 63-54 at Adelaide Oval. Richmond's competitiveness around the contest was encouraging, but inaccurate kicking again proved costly.

The broader numbers still highlight the gap between Richmond and the stronger teams. The Tigers are averaging only 60.6 points across their past five matches while conceding 94.8, producing an average losing margin of 34.2 points.

St Kilda Saints Form

The Saints' afternoon was significantly affected when Wanganeen-Milera injured his hamstring inside the opening 10 minutes. Mason Wood was also ruled out during the game, while Tom De Koning and Liam Ryan required treatment for shoulder issues.

St Kilda struggled to contain Carlton's transition game and eventually fell 106-62, leaving its wildcard hopes hanging by a thread.

There were still encouraging performances from players who will now be asked to carry greater responsibility. Bradley Hill collected 31 disposals, while Hall was outstanding with 30 touches, 10 clearances and two goals.
