Game Review
The Saints played a desperate and at times brilliant second half to completely overwhelm Carlton and record their first win in four games against the Blues. Magnificent form by centre half back Neil Besanko paved the way for inspiring football by his team-mates and kept the Finals chances of St Kilda alive. -
