Giants Secure Home Final with 11-Point Win over Saints

Greater Western Sydney Giants secured an 11-point victory over St Kilda Saints in a dramatic AFL match, with the final score at 15.14 (104) to 14.9 (93). Toby Greene led the Giants' comeback with four goals and pivotal marks in the final minutes, helping the team clinch a home elimination final and maintain hopes for a double chance. Despite a strong five-goal performance from St Kilda's Darcy Wilson, the Saints were unable to hold off the Giants' late surge. The Giants were concerned about midfielder Stephen Coniglio, who suffered a concussion and was substituted out before halftime, but the upcoming pre-finals bye offers hope for his recovery. Key contributors for GWS included Tom Green, who had 33 disposals and 13 clearances, and Max Gruzewski with three goals. The win guarantees GWS a spot no lower than sixth on the ladder, positioning them well for the finals series.
