1.0.6 is Port Adelaideâs worst first quarter against St Kilda since 2010, and their third-worst first quarter against them in 33 meetings.
But luckily for the Power, theyâve been let off the hook by the Saints, who dominated that opening term, but werenât able to translate that onto the scoreboard.
Port Adelaide are taking the game on a bit more today, playing on often when they get the chance. But theyâre being let down by their forward line so far. St Kilda lead by nine points with 3:30 left in the first quarter, 2.3.15 to 1.0.6.
The Saints got the opening goal courtesy of their inspirational captain Steele - who else?
St Kilda lead by two points midway through the first term, 1.2.8 to 1.0.6.
Leading disposals: Burton 5, T.McKenzie 5, Ross 5, Lienert 4, Steele 4
Rusty start to this game with just two behinds scored so far after eight minutes, both by St Kilda.
Ryder and Lycett are going head-to-head in the ruck while Dunstan has gone to Wines, Aliir has started on Marshall, Wilkie is on Georgiades, Trent McKenzie is taking King and Howard has the job on the Dixon.
St Kilda spent the first week of their bye in damage control. They were 13th on the ladder after 13 rounds, with four of their eight losses by margins of nine goals or more. Then, against all expectations, they started winning. Click here to read the full story.
