Game Chat – West Coast vs St Kilda

Written by Thommo on July 24 2021

Where and When: Optus Stadium, Saturday 24th July 2021 at 4:35pm (AEST)

Last time they met: Rd 4, 2021: St Kilda 15.12 (102) def West Coast 13.4 (82) at Marvel

Last 5 H2H: West Coast 3 – St Kilda 2

Thommo Watch:

West Coast: With the exception of Luke Shuey, their list is starting to resemble their best side so keep an eye on Elliot Yeo, Tim Kelly, Gaff and Shannon Hurn for late-season upgrades. NicNat should continue his strong form against Ryder and Hunter.

St Kilda: #ManOfSteele

Match Preview: The Saints have performed well in recent weeks but they let themselves down against Port last week with silly errors late in the game. With a poor percentage, they need to win this week to remain in finals contention. Without Rowan Marshall, this will be a tough ask against the Eagles who finally turned around their form slump with a win against Adelaide last week. Even though Optus Stadium is no longer a fortress for West Coast, Nic Natanui will give good service to his strong midfield and the Saints defenders will have their hands full with Kennedy, Darling, Allen, Cripps and Ryan.

The Saints will put in an honest performance but if the Eagles are anywhere near their best, they will win this and hold onto 7th spot.

Thommo’s Tip:  West Coast by 12 points. (Tipping record: 29.5/52)
