Sydney Swans vs GWS Giants Odds
Sydney Swans vs GWS Giants Preview
Once again, it’s Giants versus Swans in the Finals Series, and the stakes are high. Historically, the Giants boast a perfect 3-0 record against Sydney in finals (2016, 2018, 2021). However, the Swans had the upper hand this season, winning both encounters convincingly by 29 and 27 points.
Sydney’s form has been shaky lately, with a heavy loss to the Power, but they’ve shown promise with a solid finish. The Giants, while underperforming, have managed key wins with efficient forward play. Sydney’s midfield, led by Errol Gulden, has been a major threat, troubling the Giants in both meetings.
The Giants, strong in creating marking opportunities inside 50, will need to step up their game. With potential returns for Tom Papley and Jake Riccardi, expect a tight, electrifying clash.
