St Kilda host Richmond at Etihad Stadium in the biggest game of Round 10. Both clubs have had impressive wins in recent weeks and will be looking to boost their push to make the finals tonight. We’ll have live scores from 7:50pm AEST for the Saints vs Tigers clash.
The most recent meeting between the two clubs in 2011 saw a 95-all draw, with St Kilda kicking 17 behinds to rue their inaccuracy in front of goal.
While St Kilda haven’t lost to Richmond since 2003, this year’s Tigers under look to be a real force, with Jack Riewoldt finally hitting form, and Ivan Maric flying in the ruck. Damien Hardwick has strived to instill intensity and competitiveness, and the Tiger Army are starting to believe.
The Saints ruck stocks have been thinned through injury, and they continue to miss Sam Fisher at the back. Makeshift ruckman Jason Blake has a big job ahead of him.
St Kilda is coming off their third consecutive six-day break, and they faded towards the end of last week’s win over the Swans. They’ve picked a bad time to get weary against Richmond, but they love playing at home and have played in more big matches than Richmond.
It’ll be on for young and old in this much-anticipated clash with close to a full-house at Etihad. We’ll bring you live scores from the bounce at 7:50 AEST.
