Richmond host St Kilda in Round 23 of the 2026 AFL season at MCG on Saturday, 15th August at 12:35pm AEST. Read on for our full match preview, insider AFL betting tips, and best footy odds.
Saturday’s big day of footy at the MCG kicks off at lunchtime with St Kilda’s season on life support against Richmond.
The Saints arrive in disastrous form, falling 106-62 to Carlton last Sunday in a performance compounded by superstar Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera exiting early with a hamstring injury.
They’re now two games outside the top 10 and needing a miracle to make Wildcard Weekend.
Richmond, for all their struggles, gets an opportunity here against a rival that is anything but flying after they pushed Adelaide to nine points in the rain.
They’ve proven they won’t tank for the number one pick with their recent win over the Eagles (mistake if you ask me), so expect them to run with the Saints for at least the first half.
The favourite has covered the line in each of the Saints’ last six matches, and we’re expecting that to continue with the line set at -22.5 and a big second half from Ross’ men.
