ST KILDA goalsneak Stephen Milne was in sensational form against Adelaide, running amok in the Saints' forward line and throwing the Crows defence into chaos. The quick small forward started the ball rolling for the Saints, kicking their opening two goals of the night and three in the first quarter to set the tone for what was to follow.

While the big men grabbed the ascendency in the second quarter, it was again Milne - with some help from Adam Schneider - who tore the Crows apart in the third term. He kicked three of the four goals for the quarter. His sixth for the night, a classic run and snap across his body, was arguably his best.
