Just when it appeared things couldn’t get any worse for the Kangaroos, they were thumped
by Adelaide in Hobart in what had shaped as a winnable game. North have slumped to 0-7
with no light seemingly at the end of the tunnel. But St Kilda are not firing on all cylinders,
either, with a giant drop in their pressure rating over the last two weeks. The Saints have lost
three-straight matches, and their last win came in unconvincing fashion against Richmond in
Gather Round. There simply has to be a response from Ross Lyon’s team after dropping to
2-5. Star Saints forward Max King is set to return from a knee issue to extend the
under-sized Kangaroos defence.
TIP: St Kilda by 22 points, Brad Hill to have 25 or more possessions
