St Kilda, a team once flying high, now finds themselves caught in the grips of a form slump, having lost four out of their last five matches. While they managed to secure a win against the lowly West Coast Eagles during this period, it was far from convincing. Ross Lyon's side started the season with great promise but has since faltered, holding on to 6th place on the ladder only by percentage and tied on points with 9th placed GWS. The upcoming match against North Melbourne presents an opportunity for redemption, but the question is, can they break free from the shackles of poor performance and reclaim their former glory?

Last weekend's game against the Gold Coast Suns was a bitter reminder of St Kilda's struggles. They were outplayed at the clearances and stoppages, leading to a disappointing 26-point loss. Moreover, in three of their last four matches, St Kilda scored fewer than 63 points, signaling issues with their offensive prowess. Such a lackluster performance has left fans and analysts puzzled about what has gone wrong with the once-promising team

While St Kilda's struggles have been evident, their upcoming opponents, North Melbourne, have endured an even more challenging season. The Kangaroos currently languish in the 17th spot on the ladder and have faced defeat in their last 15 matches. Confidence appears to be at an all-time low within the squad, as demonstrated in their 48-point defeat against Hawthorn. The margin could have been even worse if not for Hawthorn's inaccuracy in front of goal.

Considering both teams' recent performances, the upcoming match promises to be an intriguing battle. Despite their lacklustre showings, St Kilda remains a formidable side, and it's difficult to envision them succumbing to another defeat against North Melbourne. The thirst for redemption and to retain their position in the top eight will drive them to perform better on the field.

St Kilda's journey to revive their season starts with the match against North Melbourne. While they have stumbled along the way, this battle for redemption presents an opportunity to reclaim their position as a competitive force in the league. Fans hope that the team can overcome their recent struggles and rise to the occasion, showing the grit and determination that once defined them.
