Racing and Sports will provide analysis of games in the 2025 AFL Season.
We'll endeavour to run through the form, incorporate appropriate stats and also supply a betting prediction which won't always just be who will win.
COLLINGWOOD v ST KILDA
Saturday 21 June @ Marvel Stadium
It is last chance saloon for St Kilda and they've picked the worst opposition of all to do it against.
The only positive is that it is on their own dunghill in an Away game.
Collingwood was forced to 'endure' the Bye after King's Birthday and has the extended break and the long trip to the Docklands.
They did just enough to scramble home over the Demons who were right up for it on the big day. They were due for a slight down and yet still won.
| Match | Collingwood | St Kilda | Ground |
| Last time they met | 12.7 [79] | 14.10 [94] | MCG |
| Last 10 matches | 6 wins | 4 wins | |
| Notes | Last 4 clashes are under 3 goal margins. | ||
| Famously played the consecutive replayed Grand Finals. | |||
It will be up to the Saints to fully engulf the Daicos' if they want to win. That is very much a Ross Lyon trait.
But perhaps is it Josh that is equally as important as Nick is. Collingwood love to get that run off half back and he gets loose often.
He did just that against Melbourne for 34 disposals while brother was closely monitored.
You would not be astounded to see Collingwood a bit rusty. Many a Flag favourite has a soft late June/July heading into the finals.
But until St Kilda show more, leave it with the Pies.
Match Selection: Collingwood by 17 points
Suggested Bets: Collingwood 1-39 @ $2.05
