Saints hold off fighting Crows

Nick Stone and Matthew ClarkeSt Kilda have withstood a resilient Adelaide outfit, recording a 23-point win in their AFL clash at York Park in Launceston.

The Saints bounced back from a last-start loss to come up trumps 14.7 (91) to 10.8 (68).

Dual Browlow Medallist Robert Harvey led the way with 37 disposals and two goals, while full-forward Fraser Gehrig booted five majors.

The result pushes the Saints back to the top of the competition ladder, although Melbourne can again push clear with a win over Port Adelaide on Sunday.

Saints too strong

Robert HarveySt Kilda has ground out a 23-point win over Adelaide at York Park in Tasmania to keep its hopes of a top two finish alive.

The Saints led all day, and although the Crows worked hard to hang on, the 'hosts' maintained a comfortable buffer to win 14.7 (91) to 10.8 (68).

The indefatigable Robert Harvey led the Saints with a game-high 37 possessions, along with two goals.

Fraser Gehrig was again good up forward for St Kilda, kicking five goals, and young star Nick Riewoldt also worked hard for his three, grabbing 13 marks along the way. [more]
