West Coast Eagles vs St Kilda Saints Preview
To be winning the 2022 premiership you must be playing your best football at the tail end of the season.
St Kilda are not.
The Saints have now lost four of their last five and have dropped out of the top eight and losses to Essendon and the Western Bulldogs have really hurt.
They travel to Perth this weekend in what is simply a must win game.
The Eagles have just two wins in season 2022 but their form in recent weeks has at least improved.
A good start at home has been few and fair between having lost the first quarter in their last eight straight games at Optus Stadium.
The Saints have struggled to convert when going inside 50 with limited avenues to goal but West Coast has been an easy opponent to score against with their last four games going over the total match points line.
