Weather is expected to be a sunny 19°, with a moderate northerly breeze. Adams is our sub, while it's Sharp for the Demons. I suspect the idea is for him to replace Mills at some stage, who was on limited minutes when he made his VFL return. But of course, injury can often ruin that kind of plan.
At least Mills returning might mean a little bit more forward time for Heeney and Warner, who could be instrumental in us kicking a winning score, when it's possible that Ladhams, McLean and Hamling, might struggle against May and Lever. At the other end, if Wicks spends plenty of time on Pickett, then that could be an important clash.
Melbourne have just come in to $1.90 favourites, when we've been slightly favoured for most of the week. Which is probably fair enough, as they've been in a bit better form and have less chopping and changing of personnel. Still, a win for us wouldn't surprise me at all.
