Melbourne Demons vs St Kilda Saints Preview
The Demons and the Saints both have similar goals in mind this week.
Melbourne and St Kilda were both on the receiving end of a loss in Round 13, a result that leaves both teams with some work to do ahead of the finals.
The Demons failed to kick a goal during the third quarter last week that ultimately cost them a win against the Bulldogs.
St Kilda, meanwhile, were their own worst enemy in front of goal against the Lions in a heartbreaking two-point loss.
The Saints have been a very consistent side on the back of a previous defeat going 4-1 straight-up and a perfect 5-0 at the line over the last 12 months.
Of the two sides, St Kilda are probably the easiest to trust, especially with three consecutive wins to their name over the Dees.
