St Kilda and North Melbourne are set to face off in Round 21 of the 2025 Australian Football League season at Marvel Stadium on Thursday.
St Kilda had a pretty decent start to life through the opening nine games as they had a record of five wins and four losses. However, their form in the last 10 games has severely hurt their chances of reaching the Top Eight as they have suffered eight losses, and have now fallen down to 14th on the ladder.
North Melbourne have endured a tough year, managing just four wins across the first 20 rounds. All four victories came in a six-game stretch, but the Kangaroos now find themselves on a five-game losing skid as they continue to struggle for results and find themselves second-last on the ladder.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch the match, kickoff times, and the latest lineup news.
