North Melbourne Kangaroos vs St Kilda Saints Preview

Two sides at opposite ends of the ladder meet to close out the round.

The Saints have come back to earth a little following a pair of losses to Collingwood and Port Adelaide over their las three games, but they should have a chance to boost their percentage against a North Melbourne side that appears to be in all sorts of trouble.

Opening wins over West Coast and Fremantle feel like a distant memory now as Alastair Clarkson’s side has struggled mightily to defend down back.

The Roos have given up 100 points in three of their last four games, a worrying side for Shinboner fans after suffering a 103-50 loss to the Saints when they met last year.

Shades of the North Melbourne of old are beginning to trickle through the cracks, and it’s fair to question the complete lack of effort in last week’s drubbing at the hands of the Dees.

The Saints aren’t a high-scoring team, but with Ross Lyon squeezing the life out of his opponents each week, this shapes as another long game for North Melbourne fans.
