Richmond vs St Kilda Preview
Richmond and St Kilda will meet at the MCG on Saturday afternoon in a clash between two sides merely playing out the final rounds of a forgettable 2025 campaign. The Saints claimed a crushing 82-point win when the sides met in Round 3, driven by a second-half blitz and standout performances from Jack Sinclair and Mitch Owens.
While Richmond’s season has gone from bad to worse—most recently suffering a humiliating 84-point loss to Gold Coast, equalling their seventh-lowest score ever—St Kilda has at least shown signs of life. The Saints edged past North Melbourne last week, with Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera continuing his rich vein of form, averaging nearly 35 disposals over the past month.
Despite both teams sitting low on the ladder, St Kilda appears the more stable outfit and will be confident of completing a season sweep of the Tigers.
