[ 6.26 | Part 3 ] After another loss to Port Adelaide in Adelaide, the Saints now face the bottom-of-the-ladder North Melbourne Kangaroos, and nobody is feeling particularly confident.

We're joined by 90's cult figure KRISTIAN BARDSLEY (formerly Kristian Anning, North Melbourne), who talks us through his AFL career including the night the lights went out at Waverley, the Ansett Cup Grand Final, and of course, his infamous clash with Gary Ablett Sr.

[ 6.26: PART 1 ] Another narrow defeat added to the loss column in a game where the Saints were simply not good enough for long enough to match it with Port Adelaide in Adelaide. It's been a frustrating start to the 2024 AFL Season for the St Kilda Football Club. Did we get pre-season expectations wrong?

It's been a frustrating start to the 2024 AFL Season for the St Kilda Football Club. Did we get pre-season expectations wrong? Another narrow defeat added to the loss column in a game where the Saints were simply not good enough for long enough to match it with the good teams. Now we face the bottom of the ladder Kangaroos, and nobody is feeling particularly confident. Plus we're joined this week by 90's cult figure KRISTIAN BARDSLEY, who talks us through his 53 St Kilda games (after starting at North Melbourne as Kristian Anning) including the night the lights went out at Waverley, the Ansett Cup Grand Final, and of course, his infamous clash with Gary Ablett Sr. Please remember to rate and review our show on whatever platform you're most comfortable with (iTunes, Facebook, Spotify etc), and always give us your feedback - good, bad or ugly - and keep sending in your questions or comments on social media!

We spoke to 'Big Boy' BEN MCEVOY in September 2023 about his 91-game St Kilda Football Club career, and what led to his departure to the Hawks - where he would go on to play another 161 games, captain the club, and win two AFL Premierships - in the spring of 2013. Due to technical issues, this interview with Ben McEvoy was never released, however, we've managed to salvage most of it to a point where it can be published nearly a year later. Hope you enjoy it!

A man down this week, we took to YouTube live without Darren Parkin, who was tending to a sick child, and replaced at very late notice by fan favourite, Philip Dalidakis. In this week's edition of "Saints Therapy" we take a critical (but not tooooo critical) look at a disappointing loss to the Bulldogs, and keep an eye on a Friday night primetime clash in Adelaide with the Power.

[6.19 | Part 3 ] We take a look at the St Kilda Football Club's Round 5 away clash to ladder leaders, GWS Giants, in Canberra.

Nearly 50 years to the day since his debut for the St Kilda Football Club, former captain BRUCE DUPEROUZEL joins us to talk about his incredible career, which included a WANFL (WAFL) club best and fairest for Claremont, 139 VFL games for the Saints, WA state footy, an All Australian jacket in 1980, and even a Sheffield Shield trophy playing State cricket for Western Australia!

[ 6.19: PART 1 ] The first half of St Kilda's Gather Round clash against Richmond was awful, but they managed to turn it around and grind out a nice come-back victory against a decent opponent on neutral territory.

The difference a half time break makes... The first half of St Kilda's Gather Round clash against Richmond was awful, but they managed to turn it around and grind out a nice come-back victory against a decent opponent, and now we turn our eyes towards flag favourite GWS in Canberra. Plus we're joined this week by early 1980s St Kilda Football Club captain - 50 years since his debut - 'Super Duper' BRUCE DUPEROUZEL!

We dive into our thoughts about the Saints' Gather Round clash with Richmond in Adelaide.

We're back for a cathartic therapy session after an awful loss to the Bombers. Do we trust Ross Lyon and his coaching staff to figure it out?

We're joined by the perfect guest ahead of St Kilda v Richmond in Adelaide - 118-game Saint, Steven Sziller - to talk about his late-start career, State of Origin, the 1997 Grand Final and his surprise delisting and subsequent move to Richmond after a Top-10 club Best & Fairest season in 2000.

That was hard to deal with. An awful loss to the Bombers means we're back this week for a cathartic chat about where we're at before we take a look at the Saints' Gather Round clash with Richmond in Adelaide. Plus, we're joined by a man from Adelaide, who played for St Kilda AND Richmond - a perfect guest for this week - STEVEN SZILLER!

We look ahead to Essendon, with a host of injuries and a suspension to spearhead, Max King.

We're joined by St Kilda Hall of Fame member and 1974 Best & Fairest, GLENN ELLIOTT, to chat about his football career.

[ 6.11: PART 1 ] What a win! The Saints put in a fantastic performance to get over the Pies at the MCG.

What a win! The Saints put in a fantastic performance to get over the Pies at the MCG and we look ahead to Essendon, with a host of injuries and a suspension to spearhead, Max King.

We chatted with former St Kilda Football Club president, Andrew Plympton, in June 2022, about some of the key moments of his time at the Saints: Moorabbin to Waverley, Plugger, the 1997 Grand Final, Stan Alves and Tim Watson, and the move to Docklands. Sadly, Andrew passed away on the 24th of March, 2024, so this interview is here to serve as his legacy: a wonderful example of the hard work and passion that so many have for the St Kilda Football Club. Vale, Andrew Plympton.
