Nasiah's Heroics Lift Saints to Miraculous Comeback Win Over Demons
Alright, let me take you through what was easily one of the most jaw-dropping finishes of the 2025 AFL season — the St Kilda vs Melbourne clash in Round 20. You could feel the tension in the air during those final two minutes. And then, just like that, Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera stepped up and delivered a pair of moments that will be remembered for a long, long time.
So picture this: Melbourne were in control, doing what they usually do — structured, clinical, and with a clear eye on the four points. But St Kilda, they were hanging on by a thread, just refusing to let go. As the clock ticked down, what looked like a routine win for the Dees quickly turned chaotic.
Enter Nasiah.
Now, we’ve seen him have moments of brilliance before, but this was next level. With the game seemingly slipping away, Nasiah put his foot down — literally — and sparked what turned into a stunning momentum shift. First, a gutsy intercept, then a pinpoint kick under pressure, and suddenly the Saints were alive. You could see the confidence ripple through the team, and the crowd, well, they absolutely erupted.

Then came the match-winner. It wasn't just skill — it was vision, it was composure, and it was courage. With just seconds left, he took matters into his own hands, brushing aside the pressure like it was nothing. He backed himself in, and nailed it. Just like that, the Saints were in front. The siren followed not long after, and it felt like Marvel Stadium had exploded. Players were hugging, fans were in tears — even Melbourne looked like they couldn’t believe what had just happened.
It was a moment where the young star took control of his destiny — and his team’s. And credit to St Kilda as a whole. Ross Lyon’s men never dropped their heads. The leaders held the line, and the younger brigade — especially Nasiah — proved they’ve got ice in their veins.
Meanwhile, Melbourne were left stunned. Their post-match press conference said it all — missed opportunities, poor communication, and a late-game structure that simply fell apart when it mattered most.
But make no mistake, this game will be remembered not for what the Demons didn’t do, but for what Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera did . When the heat was on, he was cool. When the pressure peaked, he rose.
And after a win like that? Yeah, it’s no surprise people were already saying, “Nas will be hitting the circuit tonight.”
