Essendon Bombers vs St Kilda Saints Preview

A game against the injury riddled Bombers couldn’t have come at a better time for the Saints as they look to atone for last week’s disappointment in ‘Spud’s Game’ against Melbourne.

Uncharacteristically, the Saints spent most of the game turning the ball over as the Dees applied a tremendous amount of pressure to force some very basic skill areas.

Fortunately, St Kilda should find things a whole lot easier this week against a down-and-out Dons side that probably wishes the season would hurry up and end.

After blowing a six-goal lead against the Hawks in Round 1, the Bombers proved no match last week against Port in what was a soul-crushing defeat in more ways than one.

As if a 54-point loss wasn’t bad enough, three of Essendon’s key playmakers – Dylan Shiel, Sam Draper and Jye Caldwell – are all expected to miss upward of two months with respective injuries.

The Saints are well worth forgiving on last week’s effort, particularly with a strong 6-2 record next to their name at the line following a previous loss.

With a long list of injuries piling up, the Bombers are a serious bottom two chance now, which makes the Saints a fairly safe bet to win this comfortably.
