Carlton Blues vs St Kilda Saints Preview

St Kilda enters with renewed confidence following a dominant victory, showcasing improved ball movement and forward efficiency. Carlton, by contrast, continues to battle inconsistency despite periods of strong pressure. The Saints’ high-pressure style and clean disposal could expose the Blues’ ongoing struggles transitioning the ball. With momentum building and a potential return to the top eight in sight, St Kilda appears well positioned to control the tempo and secure a hard-fought win.

The 2026 Cadillac Championship continues on Friday, May 1, with the second round at Trump National Doral. You can find full Cadillac Championship tee times for Friday’s second round at the bottom of this post.

Featured tee time for Round 2

Justin Rose is hoping this week’s return to Trump Doral sees him return to the winner’s circle. And there’s reason to believe he could do just that at this week’s Cadillac Championship. Rose won the 2012 WGC-Cadillac Championship at the Blue Monster course, host of this year’s Cadillac.

Rose already has one PGA Tour victory on the season, having captured the title at the 2026 Farmers Insurance Open in January. That represented the 13th win of his Tour career. He finished T3 at the Masters in early April.

Adding more intrigue is the fact that Rose announced a new club sponsorship with McLaren Golf this week, and he’s putting the new irons into play for the first time at Doral.

Whether that will help him top the likes of World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and Alex Fitzpatrick at the Cadillac is yet to be seen.

Rose will tee off for the second round on Friday at 2:15 p.m. ET alongside Adam Scott.

You can watch Friday’s second round of the 2026 Cadillac Championship from 3-7 p.m. ET on Golf Channel. PGA Tour Live on ESPN+ will provide exclusive early streaming coverage starting at 8:30 a.m. ET on Friday, in addition to featured group and featured hole coverage.

Sydney Swans vs Melbourne Demons Odds

Sydney Swans vs Melbourne Demons Preview

A genuine top-four test awaits as Sydney hosts Melbourne at the SCG. The Swans have set the benchmark offensively this season, combining scoring power with a disciplined defensive setup. Melbourne has impressed with recent wins, led by Kozzie Pickett’s influence, but faces a significant step up against Sydney’s balanced system. The Swans’ ability to apply pressure and convert inside 50 entries may stretch the Demons’ defence, particularly on the tighter SCG ground. Expect Sydney to dictate terms if their forward line fires.

Penrith Panthers vs Manly Sea Eagles Odds

Penrith Panthers vs Manly Sea Eagles Preview

Penrith remains the benchmark of the competition, responding emphatically last week to reaffirm their premiership credentials. Manly, however, arrives with renewed energy, unbeaten since a coaching change and playing with greater attacking freedom. While the Panthers’ system and consistency make them formidable, recent close calls highlight they are not untouchable. The Sea Eagles’ resurgence adds intrigue, and if they can match Penrith’s intensity early, they may keep the contest competitive deep into the second half.

Bob Olinger rode off into retirement with victory in the Champion Stayers Hurdle on day three of the Punchestown Festival.

Ridden by Darragh O’Keefe, the Henry de Bromhead-trained 11-year-old (4-1) saw off Willie Mullins’ Jimmy Du Seuil (9-1) and pre-race favourite Teahupoo (5-4) who was seeking a third consecutive triumph in the race.

It capped a remarkable 11-win career that produced three at Cheltenham, as he rolled back the years to go out on a high.

Teahupoo led as they headed down the final stretch of the three-mile circuit, but Bob Olinger had closed the gap by the final fence and had more in the tank to open a gap.

While Jimmy Du Seuil applied late pressure, it just was not enough as Bob Olinger had three-quarters of a length to spare.

The Novice Chase went the way of Salvator Mundi (13-2) who took advantage of a fall from favourite Kopek Des Bordes.

With Mullins’ new retained jockey Harry Cobden onboard, it was a case of taking advantage of his stablemate’s misfortune two fences from home to claim the win.

Kopek Des Bordes seemed to be in full control before the fall with Salvator Mundi, who was on his coattails, galloping to a 12-length win from second place Irish Panther (15-2) and Jacob’s Ladder (18-1) in third.

Gujarat Titans (GT) skipper Shubman Gill expressed satisfaction after the team’s four-wicket win over Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 match on Thursday in Ahmedabad. Gill also lauded GT bowlers for a fine effort in restricting RCB to a subpar score of 155 in the first innings of the match, setting up an easy chase for the hosts. Chasing 156, GT completed the target comfortably in 15.4 overs, powered by quickfire knocks from Shubman Gill (43 off 18) and Jos Buttler (39 off 19). Rahul Tewatia (27 not out) and Rashid Khan guided the team home after a few middle-order wickets. Earlier, GT’s bowlers restricted RCB to 155 in 19.2 overs, led by Arshad Khan (3/22), with support from Rashid Khan (2/19) and Jason Holder (2/29).

With the win, GT are now placed fifth in the IPL points table with five wins in nine matches, having accumulated 10 points.

Speaking at the post-match presentation, Shubman Gill said he was pleased with the win, crediting the bowlers for restricting the opposition to under 160 on a good batting surface.

On his batting, Gill mentioned he felt “in the zone” and wanted to take on the bowlers. He praised Rahul Tewatia for finishing the game, while noting the team lost a few more wickets than expected but benefited from contributions across the lineup.

“Feels very satisfying. On a wicket like this, restricting them to under 160 was a tremendous job by the bowlers. Our fielding was one of the things…in phases, we have not fielded well. Energy in the field was very nice. (On his batting) I was just feeling I was in the zone. Felt it is my day and wanted to take the bowlers on. (On Tewatia) He is a very important player, happy he finished the game. We lost couple more wickets than we would have liked. He got some nice runs and everyone got a hit in the middle,” Gill said.

Jason Holder was named Player of the Match for his impressive spell of 2/19 in four overs, along with three key catches, dismissing Rajat Patidar, Tim David, and Krunal Pandya.

Patidar’s dismissal stood out in particular. Off a short delivery from Arshad Khan, Patidar attempted a pull shot but got a top edge towards deep backward square leg. Holder sprinted to his right and completed a sharp low catch, even as Kagiso Rabada also charged at the ball.

While RCB players contested the decision, arguing that Holder had not been in full control and that the ball may have touched the ground, the umpires ruled it a dismissal.

Jason Holder said he was pleased with his overall performance and credited the team’s strong energy.

Speaking about his catch to dismiss Patidar, Holder noted he was aware of Rabada nearby but felt confident going for the ball. He added that he embraces whatever comes his way, is happy to take his chances, and contribute to the win.

“Happy things how went for me personally. Felt our energy was good from the start. (On his catch to dismiss Patidar) I did see him (Rabada), was just hoping to not run into him. He was in my peripheral but he was far enough for me to put in an attempt (to catch it). (On ball following him) I welcome it as it comes. Just happy to hold on to the chances. Happy to contribute and to get over the line,” he said at the post-match presentations.
