Game Chat – St Kilda vs North Melbourne

Written by Thommo on May 29 2021

Where and when: Marvel Stadium, Saturday 29 May at 4:35pm (AEST)

Last time they met: Round 1, 2020: North Melbourne 8.8 (56) def St Kilda 7.12 (54) at Marvel Stadium

Last five: North Melbourne 4 – St Kilda 1

Match Preview: North have had the wood over the Saints in recent clashes but surely the Saints will be up and about after last week’s debacle. St Kilda only have two speeds: Good or absolutely rubbish, and surely we see more of the former this week, especially after the media focused on their poor trading in recent seasons. Brad Hill will want to lift after his $900k pay received significant attention.

The Roos had been showing signs of improvement up until their clash with the Bombers last week and they will need to avoid another thumping this week. However, even with their recent success over the Saints, it is hard to see North overcoming a motivated Saints on the rebound.

Thommo Watch: 

North
Jye Simpkin is turning into a handy midfielder while everyone owns Jack “kick it sideways” Ziebell.
Saints
Welcome to the tribe Jack Steele – you know you can crack 150 points against the Roos!
Thommo’s Tip: Saints by 30 points (tipping record 16/30).

      1. Thanks CT.

        He seems to be doing ok 😉

        Steele repaying the faith on 124 at 3/4 time.

        Highmore looks a disaster at D6, with Kosi and Jones on my Bench 🙁

  4. Thought I was clever with eight warm bodies in defence. Only problem is Highmore onfield, Murphy and kosi on bench
