Curtain-raiser v Blues locked in

Can the Saints and Sandy do the double over the Blues on Sunday?

By saints.com.au

The curtain-raiser returns this Sunday ahead of the Saints’ crucial Round 10 clash against Carlton.

The Sandringham Zebras, flush with St Kilda-listed talent, will take on the Northern Blues at Marvel Stadium at 11.50am this Sunday prior to the AFL fixture.

Fans can enter via Gates 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 or 9 from 11.30am to get two games for the price of one.

The match is due to be completed at 2.20pm, one hour before the scheduled start of the Saints v Blues clash.

Get down to Marvel Stadium early on Sunday for a look at the Saints you haven’t seen as Aaron Hamill’s Zebras take it up to the Blues.
