Melbourne v St Kilda, MCG

The heat is on at Melbourne after becoming another victim of the Harley Reid show at Optus
Stadium last Sunday. The Demons were on the wrong end of the biggest upset of the
season, leaving them precariously placed inside the top-eight. Their forward line remains a
massive headache, even with superstar Christian Petracca spending more time inside-50. St
Kilda are in even more strife as they struggle in all aspects of their game. An impressive win
over Collingwood in round two has proven to be the outlier, with their only other victories this
season coming against lowly Richmond and North Melbourne in unconvincing fashion. Ross
Lyon needs to release the shackles and get the Saints’ young runners into the game.

TIP: Melbourne by 17 points, Max Gawn to have 10 or more clearances
