Melbourne Demons vs Brisbane Lions Preview
A lot of pressure on both teams here in what is going to be an epic semi-final.
Melbourne went toe to toe with Sydney last week but couldn’t hold on late, thankfully a top 4 finish has given them a second chance here.
Brisbane probably got a little fortunate against Richmond but it was a great win and they’ll head into this game with plenty of confidence.
At the MCG you have to think Melbourne will be hard to beat here, there’s plenty of questions over whether their forward line is up to it but give them enough chances and they should be too good here.
