Being able to watch such a remarkable game between the visiting West Coast Eagles against the local based Saint Kilda Saints, we were left contented and appreciative to the performance of all players from both squads. Witnessing the game from the very start up to its end, we were delighted to see a fighting and gallant Saint Kilda squad to the present number 2 team in the league.
Indeed the will to fight of all the Saints' members were so obvious but somehow, the momentum did sided on the Eagles'. Proving their worth as the present number 2 team in the league, they answered every rally made by the Saints.
Their quickness made a very strong impact on this game. But nobody could also disregard the gallant effort of the Saints that it even resulted to the injury of their players named Jimmy Webster to concussion and a hamstring injury to defender Sam Fisher.
In the end, the two teams deserve the respect of the crowd who all braved the cold Melbourne weather to watch the gruelling match and it was obvious then when the final siren sounded that everyone was jubilant to have witnessed such a thrilling football game.
