The St Kilda Saints will be looking to turn around their horror recent form against the Hawthorn Hawks under the roof at Marvel Stadium. Follow proceedings with live scores here at The Roar from 4:35pm (AEST).
Things are beginning to look dire at the Saints as last year’s big improver struggle to get going in 2021. Sitting 16th on the ladder with just two wins for the season to date, Brett Ratten’s men have plenty of work ahead of them to get back into finals contention, let alone challenge for a flag.
Ruckman Paddy Ryder’s return from a long absence for family reasons could not have come at a better time. The former Essendon and Port Adelaide big man will be hoping to immediately rekindle the ruck partnership with Rowan Marshall that proved crucial to the Saints’ semi-final run in 2020.
Unlike the Saints, the Hawks have no immediate pressure for success on them, with their own 2-4 start to the season about meeting expectations. However, master coach Alastair Clarkson is a prickly loser at the best of times, and he surely senses a chance for an upset win here.
The Hawks came from the clouds against Adelaide in Tasmania last week, overturning a 32-point deficit to win by three points. Look for young key forward Jacob Koschitzke, the cousin of Saints club great Justin, to sparkle, having kicked five goals in a breakout game against the Crows.
The Saints have won their last two games over the Hawks, including a 14-point victory in Round 16 last year.

In the 21st century or the 22nd?
Bomber

Yeah as much as I would love to see the bombers sneak into the 8 this year they are realistically probably a year or two away I’m very impressed with some of their kids though
Charlie Keegan

Could do but I don’t think the bombers were planning on finals this year anyway.

Roar Rookie
I will nearly be putting money on North at this point. It’s how they were beaten today that is concerning, if you get beaten by a better side that’s fine but today they threw in the towel in before they ran onto the ground.
Dean
Roar Rookie
I was just about to say the same thing. From the first bounce they were rubbish, can't remember an effort like that. No run and were weak in the contest, will be cellar dwellers for years to come at this rate. Put simply a pathetic effort.
Yattuzzi
Roar Rookie
I think they will come in 9 or 10. Pretty confident they will come in second tomorrow.
Bomber
Roar Rookie
That hawthorn v Essendon game could still come back and haunt the bombers towards the end of the year

Really makes you wonder how Essendon and the crows were able to drop such big leads to them.
