Hello there read and white, Melbourne supporter here. Not come to pick a fight or cause trouble, just her to pass some time and talk about the footy.
Firstly, It was a hell of a Saturday night you lot have just endured. The football comes a long second to the death of the head trainer. My condolences to Wally's family and to the players and club as a whole.
It will be hard for your players to come up after an event like that, it so very deeply into a club.
That aside, I am glad that this is a game that both teams have a lot to play for. Us defending a top 4 position and you fighting for a top 8 finish. Should make for an intense game with no quarter given.
We have surprised just about everyone this season (I thought that at best we could finish 6th) with a good consistent hard brand of footy. Early in the season when we played and beat you at Homebush it was just starting to come together. Now, at the other end of the season we are trying to hold it together.
We have some significant injuries to the forwards and midfield that have impacted heavily on us. Vardy and Davey are out of our forward line and we may miss Holland as well after he visits the tribunal this evening. I have given up trying to predict what they may or may not do. Thompson and Johnstone are out of the midfield rotation as well. Our defence is holding together well, except for last week, although Bizzell is yet to regain form after a lengthy layoff with a face injury.
Green and Bruce are giving us good drive through the centre and we have excellent run out of defence through Brown, Whelan, Wheatley and Rivers.
Matchups in both defence and attack will be interesting but, as usual, it will be won and lost out of the middle.
I will be interested to see how your team lines up.

. In all seriousness, the full-foward battle between Baz and Neita should be worth the price of admission alone. In a tight one, I'll say the Swans by a goal.
