Sydney Swans target St Kilda star Nasiah Wanganeen‑Milera ahead of tight AFL clash

Sydney Swans coach Dean Cox said containing St Kilda forward Nasiah Wanganeen‑Milera is "one of the toughest tasks in football" ahead of the round‑13 AFL match at the SCG on 7 June 2026. Cox confirmed that tagger James Jordon will be tasked with limiting the Saints ace, who recorded four goals and 46 disposals in his previous game against North Melbourne.

The Swans kept an unchanged lineup, while St Kilda made a few changes, bringing in Rowan Marshall and Campbell Lake and dropping Dan Butler. In a close contest, the Swans edged St Kilda by two points, extending a recent pattern of narrow results between the two clubs.

Cox praised St Kilda’s system and stressed the need to plan for Wanganeen‑Milera’s versatility across the forward line, midfield and backline.
