In a jaw-dropping display of skill, the Brisbane Lions handed St Kilda a crushing defeat at Marvel Stadium, finishing with a score of 19.10 (124) to 5.9 (39). This latest win marks the Lions’ ninth straight victory, solidifying their status as strong contenders ahead of the finals.

Brisbane showed no mercy, winning every quarter convincingly and making it clear that they are a force to be reckoned with. At one point, they even managed to score 10 consecutive goals, leaving the Saints struggling to keep up.

Lachie Neale shone brightly during the match, racking up an impressive 33 disposals and 13 clearances. Joe Daniher was equally important, kicking four goals and putting pressure on the Saints’ defense throughout the game.

Cam Rayner also made headlines with his powerful performance, finishing with three goals and 22 disposals. His recent form has made him a rising star, and many are now keeping an eye on him as a potential game-changer come finals time.

Despite coming off two wins, St Kilda could not find their rhythm against Brisbane. Coach Ross Lyon is likely feeling disheartened after witnessing his team’s lackluster effort, especially considering they couldn’t produce more than five goals throughout the game.

The game highlighted the Lions’ impressive midfield strength led by Oscar McInerney and supported by star players like Harris Andrews and Dayne Zorko. They easily dominated contested possessions and clearances, allowing Brisbane to control the game’s pace.

This loss marks a significant setback for St Kilda as they head into the final stretch of the season. Their performance was far less than what fans had hope for after several promising games, leaving many questioning their readiness for the challenges ahead.

As the home-and-away season winds down, Brisbane is now just half a game behind ladder-leaders Sydney. With wins expected in the upcoming matches against GWS, Collingwood, and Essendon, the Lions are poised to secure a home qualifying final.
