Preview:

The Sydney Swans begin the defence of their premiership triumph with a clash against cross-town rival Greater Western Sydney. The teams played out two one-sided contests in 2012, with the Swans winning by a combined 157 points. But the Giants have demonstrated during this year’s NAB Cup that they have improved, adding some bulk to their slender frames. The Swans meanwhile have hardly impressed during the pre-season, picking up a solitary victory over Gold Coast, and have struggled to get all of their players on the park. Yet they have no intention of relinquishing the upper hand in the fledgling Sydney rivalry just yet and will want to start their premiership defence in style.
