A week of turmoil at Alberton after Port were humiliated by Brisbane Lions in what was
meant to be a celebration of their one and only AFL premiership in 2004. The fallout was
ugly, fans leaving early and booing coach Ken Hinkley. But the Power remain inside the
top-eight so there won’t be a move on Hinkley until at least the end of the season. It will be a
telling game to see if the Port players are still doing it for Hinkley. Port’s record against St
Kilda is impressive, even at Marvel Stadium, so they will be counting on that to get the heat
off them. St Kilda are coming off the bye following an unexpected shootout loss against the
Brisbane Lions.
St Kilda and Port Adelaide are set to face off at Marvel Stadium in what could be a telling clash for both sides’ finals hopes. St Kilda has struggled to find consistent form this season, especially against top-eight opposition, and their scoring efficiency has been a key issue. Meanwhile, Port Adelaide has shown patches of dominance but also some unconvincing performances away from home.
When looking at AFL betting tips, punters might note that Port has had the upper hand in recent encounters, winning three of their last four games against the Saints. However, Marvel Stadium tends to favour the home side, and St Kilda’s defensive pressure can be a leveller if they bring intensity from the start.
Both teams have key players under injury clouds, which could influence late changes and matchups. If you’re analysing AFL tips for this game, consider how the midfield battle plays out—Port’s clearance work can break games open, while St Kilda thrives on turnover opportunities.
This matchup could go either way depending on early momentum and execution. For those looking to form an AFL prediction, recent trends and venue impact are worth weighing up carefully.
TIP: Port by 10 points, Connor Rozee for 25 or more possessions
