ST KILDA v NORTH MELBOURNE
Saturday 4 May @ Marvel Stadium
Another of the incredibly even historical clashes on this weekend should have you thinking things will remain the same.
However that might not be the case right now given how North Melbourne is travelling.
St Kilda lost but were pretty gritty in Adelaide. They just couldn't score well enough to take advantage of the Power's injury crisis. A better side might have been more successful.
They had a lot of contributors but no-one was able to take the game by the scruff and drag his side over the line. That is probably emblematic of this Saints group.
In their opposition North, they may have more luck doing that. The Kangas can't take a trick. No matter what they try.
Inexperience is killing them right when they need some old soldiers to keep them on track. The impression internally is they have heads held high though.
A 15 goal score might be enough to win here and at their best Larkey and Zurhaar can do that. Supply is the issue.
| Match | St Kilda | North Melbourne | Ground |
| Last time they met | 9.15 [69] | 9.7 [61] | Marvel |
| Last 10 matches | 6 wins | 4 wins | |
| Notes | St Kilda has won the last 4 | ||
| Overall record is 82/2/81 | |||
You'd have to say St Kilda wins but if it's not a huge scoring game, North can cover the line.
Match Selection: St Kilda by 26 points
Suggested Bets: North Melbourne +38.5 @ 1.91 @ bet365
