The Tigers have shown flashes of promise at times this season, but last week was a fair\u00a0indication\u00a0that Adam Yze\u2019s side is still a long way off competing.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Saints crept out to an early lead and never looked back, smashing Richmond in clearances and stoppages in what was\u00a0largely a\u00a0forgettable day for the yellow and black.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Things\u00a0don\u2019t\u00a0get any easier with a final game in hand against Geelong, and although Chris Scott might wish to rest older names like Patrick Dangerfield,\u00a0there’s\u00a0likely too much\u00a0to play for with a win guaranteeing a Top 6 finish and a week off.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

These two sides\u00a0haven\u2019t\u00a0met this season, but their dual meetings last year saw the Cats win comfortably by 6+ goals.\u00a0Back at the Cattery and looking to improve on a somewhat\u00a0close call\u00a0against North Melbourne last week,\u00a0it\u2019s\u00a0no surprise to find Geelong as the shortest priced\u00a0favourites\u00a0this week.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Prediction:<\/strong> Geelong to Win & Under the Total<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
