Last Time They Met: It was round seven of 2021 in wet conditions that these two sides last met. The GIANTS got out of the blocks quickly, kicking four goals in the opening quarter. The conditions couldn’t stop forwards Rebecca Privitelli and Cora Staunton, who both went on to kick three goals each at RSEA Park in Melbourne.

TV & Online: The match will be broadcast live from 5:30pm (AEDT) on 7Mate as well as Foxtel, Kayo and the Official AFLW app. 

What it Means for the GIANTS: It’s a big week for the GIANTS as they play two games in five days. Wednesday’s match against the Saints is crucial for the GIANTS to keep their chance of playing finals alive. After six games, the GIANTS sit in ninth on the ladder with two wins and four losses.

Where’s the Opposition At: St Kilda currently sit bottom of the AFLW ladder, yet to record a win this season. They come off a 46-point defeat to the Blues who sit just one position above them on the ladder. Disappointed with their performance, they will be hungry to turn things around and push for their first win of the season this Wednesday.

The Number: 332 – is the number of days since the GIANTS last played at their longest-standing home venue at Blacktown International Sportspark. The last time the GIANTS played at Blacktown was in round nine of the 2021 season on Sunday, March 28.

In the Mix: After being rested for the round seven clash with Crows, young forward Jess Doyle would be expected to return given her form of a goal game since debuting in round three. Canberran Emily Pease will be hoping to hold her spot for another week and play her first AFLW game at home since joining the GIANTS ahead of the 2021 season.
