Round five Port Adelaide vs St Kilda...

Another bye for Saints

ST KILDA remain undefeated after five rounds after traveling to Adelaide and thumping Port on what is allegedly their home ground.
When the Saints thumped Freo last week – on their own concrete based skate rink – it sent critics into a frenzy. So it not hard to guess the big stories this week.
On Sunday on Offsiders on ABC TV Gerard Whately will say Port Adelaide are the AFL’s bye and he’ll follow it up with a big blog. In the The Age Gary Lyon will suggest Port should get rid of all their best players because that’s the only thing that will make them better.
And, of course, Robert Walls now has permission to run another Coach Under Pressure story. Only this time all he needs to do is replace Harvey with Williams (he’s already typed in Mark) so his story should take one minute instead of the normal 15.
Sorry to bring you so much footy news in advance. St Kilda kicked six goals to one in the first quarter and it was all over. Nick Riewoldt scored four goals and Lenny Hayes was a star.
Port Adelaide 5.6 (36) St Kilda 15.12 (102).
