GWS Giants vs St Kilda Saints Preview
The undefeated Giants head back home favoured by a healthy three goal margin against the sputtering Saints.
St Kilda came back to knock off Richmond last week, but given the Tigers long list of outs, it was hardly a convincing display from Ross Lyon and company with plenty of improving left to do.
GWS is firing on all cylinders up forward. Jesse Hogan still leads the Coleman chase, while Toby Greene chipped in with his first five goal bag of the season in the 28-point win over Gold Coast.
The Saints have done a good job slowing down some of the better attacking teams in the competition so far, but I still think this Giants team is a different beast.
Their handball chains have been the most efficient in the league, not to mention the fact they tend to hit the scoreboard hard and fast in the first quarter.
If thats the case again on Saturday, the Saints could find themselves behind early.
