I agree, Lenny. To pronounce it "Saint-Kilda" is pretty bogan.

Also can't stand how so many people pronounce Montagna as "Mon-tag-na". Get it right! It's pronounced "Mon-tan-yah".

Awww....but the other way sounds much better. Next time you see him, tell him to change it.

Like it or not, they mean the same thing. Just cause we put an Australian accent on it does not change the meaning. St is still short for and equal to Saint. So Ross Lyan and Dal are still using it correctly.

Doesn't bother me really, its the same thing. Snt sounds slightly better, but its all apples and oranges
Exacly Right Huzzad!!!!
