St Kilda Saints vs Brisbane Lions Preview

The Saints are still a big chance at playing finals, but it feels like they’re doing everything in their power to miss out entirely.

Last week’s loss to the Cats has left St Kilda two points adrift of Richmond for a spot in the eight, and they aren’t about to find things any easier on Friday night against a Lions outfit with just as much to play for.

Brisbane ran out comfortable 33-point winners over Carlton last Sunday at the Gabba, but head coach Chris Fagan knows his side still has plenty to work on after nearly letting a healthy lead slip late in the fourth quarter.

The Saints have some injury concerns to address this week with Dan Hannebery exiting early against Geelong, while recent history isn’t exactly on their side, either.

St Kilda has lost three in a row to Brisbane dating back to 2020, their most recent meeting occurring back in Round 13 in a game that saw Joe Daniher kick three goals and Lachie Neale finish with 37 touches.

As we saw last week when they gave up 17 goals to Geelong, the Saints have obvious issues down back, which spells potential disaster against a potent Lions forward line playing with a top-four spot in mind.

Finding points on a consistent basis has been a huge problem for Brett Ratten’s side all year, largely due to their lack of inside 50 entries.

For a season that has been more down than up, this might be lights out for the Sainters.
