Melbourne Demons vs GWS Giants Preview
It might not be the standout game on the fixture, but this late afternoon clash between the Dees and Giants on Sunday could hold some serious weight as far as the finals are concerned.
After losing to Geelong last week, suddenly Melbourne’s premiership credentials have come under question.
The Dees made life hard for themselves kicking 8.15, but cracks are really starting to show around the ruck, with fans also calling for another forward to help Bayley Fritsch and company.
GWS, meanwhile, suddenly looks a sneaky chance to make the eight following two blowout wins over North Melbourne and Fremantle before the bye.
Adam Kingsley’s side is playing with real grit and determination this year, spearheaded by a forward line that has made life difficult for the opposition by ranking fifth in inside 50s and third in disposals.
The fact this game is being played in the Northern Territory might slightly favour the Dees, but with Clayton Oliver set to miss a fifth-straight game, the door is open for what might be the biggest upset of the round.
With Melbourne’s forward line misfiring and the Giants holding three of their last four opponents to under 80 points, there could be a big, big sound prevailing up north.
