The Eagles were inches away from pinching their first win of the season last week against the Tigers, however, the Saints are another kettle of fish and will prove to be too tough in the midfield for the Eagles to bare. 

The Saints have had some troubles recently defensively, however, they have been more steady at the back, despite suffering injuries to their backline. With the Saints ability to win the ball around the rich through veteran Jack Macrae, expect St Kilda to play the majority of the match in the Eagles half.

Macrae will have over 25+ disposals in the match while keeping a good structure behind him in the midfield, which is why I see this game staying under the total of 169.5, which it has done the last few years between these two. 

  • 3 of the last 4 West Coast losses at Optus Stadium have been by a margin of 1-39
  • The last 3 victories for St Kilda over West Coast at Optus Stadium have been by a margin of 1-39.
  • The Under has hit in the last 4 meetings between West Coast and St. Kilda.
  • Jack Macrae has had 25+ disposals in 6 of 9 matches this season

Head to Head 


St Kilda have won the last 4 matches against the Eagles, including their last 3 at Optus Stadium.

The Saints walked away with a 72-point victory last time these two teams met and a 14-point win at Optus last season.

West Coast are still winless but came as close as they have come, going down to Richmond by 2 points at the MCG, losing by the shortest of margins just as they did against Essendon earlier this year. 

The positive for the Eagles is that they held their opponent to under 100 points, which was just the third time this season. The Eagles will be ruining chances lost in the match with fears growing even stronger that they will fail to win a match all season.

The Saints started well with 4.0 in the first quarter but fell off rails in the second kicking 2.4 opening the door for the Blues to control the match, which they did. The 15-point gap was managed well and the Saints failed to build any momentum that would see them come back in the match, without the Blues replying straight away. 

The 77-62 loss to Carlton was the Saints fourth in 5 matches after a tough patch in their draw. Things do lighten up a little over the next few weeks before their round 13 bye, so it will be vital for Ross Lyon’s men to get at least two W’s over the next 3 weeks.

Over their last couple of losses, St Kilda have been very poor completing their chances inside 50, which has been their issue for the good part of the season so far. They are also breaking down in the ruck and failing to get the required clearances to stay out of harms way.

Dougal Howard lef the game late with a hamstring complaint and will disrupt the Saints backline even more, expected to sit out for up to six weeks with a tear.

Mason wood, Patrick Said and Dan Butler will all be a test and could feature in the AFL or VFL this week, depending on their progress with their respective injuries.
