AFL\'s four points to be earned on foreign shores for first time

Great news! It's nice to know that the club I support has chosen to pioneer the game in New Zealand. There is however, a degree of mixed emotions because as a member it means I won't see the Saints play as many times, but I guess that is insignificant in what is a fantastic outcome for football in New Zealand in particular. I just hope that this move is a success and that New Zealanders embrace the game and the event and a good crowd turns out.

Also note, that each year, St Kilda will arrange a Members’ make-up match so that Members still have a full 11 home game program.

All Australian based St Kilda Members will receive free general admission to the Premiership Match in Wellington and special reserved seating packages will be available through the Club.
