Geelong Cats vs St Kilda Saints Preview
After a shock loss to the Giants last week, the Cats are back at the Cattery and can back it up with a win over the Saints this Saturday.
It’s rare that Geelong loses at Geelong, it’s, even more, rarer that they lose two in a row at the venue – that last happened back in 2015, however, the back to back losses consisted of a game in Round 4 against the Kangaroos and Round 12 against Melbourne of that season – a fair gap.
The last time Geelong lost two consecutive games at Kardinina Park in a fortnight was in 2006, losing to Richmond in Round 9 followed by eventual premiers of that year West Coast in Round 10.
Now that you can tell that I’ve been reading AFL Tables, the point is, there’s no way that Geelong are losing back-to-back games, let alone at the Cattery.
St Kilda was fantastic last week, good one week – shocking the next.
This is the week they are due to be shocking.
Back the Cats to get back to business and take the 40+ margin at the $2.60 on offer.
