FOLLOW IT LIVE Full match coverage and stats from StK v Rich
What it means for St Kilda: A couple of disastrous performances in their past three matches means the Saints need to return to the stifling, defensively sound form on show earlier in the year.
What it means for Richmond: Three straight losses have the Tigers stumbling. A mounting injury toll has proven a tough obstacle, but they need to reverse the results to ensure they feature come September.
The stat: Richmond averages 14.2 fewer contested possessions per game than its opponent, ranked last in the competition.
The match-up: Tom Lynch v Jake Carlisle
Lynch has copped his fair share of criticism this year but was in the rehab group for most of pre-season, as was Carlisle, who returned in the loss to Brisbane after back surgery. He looked rusty, so it could be an intriguing duel between a couple of big names not quite in top form.
It's a big week for: Alan Richardson
The pressure has been bubbling away for the coach all season but it's ramped right up after the diabolical outing against the Lions. His football manager, Simon Lethlean, put the Saints' inability to beat teams above them on the ladder on the agenda, so while the Tigers enter round 15 outside the top eight, their credentials make them a scalp, something Richardson badly needs for his job security.
Big call: Richmond to end this one early with a blistering opening term, booting nine goals to one as Dustin Martin cuts the Saints to shreds.
Prediction: Tigers by 62 points
