If Franklin & Rampe comes in then I’d say Sydney by 3-4 goals.

Can't remember the last time I was this excited about a Melbourne game.
Gee I wish I had your confidence.
Though it will be odd to have a few Victorian neutrals going for the swans this weekend.
Don’t get to 4th on the ladder by accident

Thats true, but we've been inconsistent of late and despite the win on Saturday the underlying issue of getting smashed in the middle still remains.
Will need the best from us to beat the Dees.
Nor first ..
Dees to challenge Fritsch suspension.
Fair enough given Dangerfield got off on a similar charge.

You mean uncle H in bed with his Micky O t-shirt on? Personally, I can't get that image out of my mind fast enough.
The club rose to the challenge against Richmond I’d expect them to stand up again. Melbourne didn’t look so great against Norf early on. They ain’t certainties.
I have no legal knowledge and even I know an appeal using this as an example would be thrown out in an instant. Dangerfield had just punched the ball and drew his outstretched arm back into protect himself from the oncoming player. Fritsch had possession of the ball and raised his arm in an attempt to fend off. I can only assume that he can't get any more than 1 week and that is why they are trying it on. The likes of Fox Footy trying to suggest these two are similar is laughable.

In: Rampe, Fox, Buddy
Out: Melican, Heeney, Sinclair (assuming the first 2 are injured).
Have McLean play ruck relief.
Push Mills back into the middle. Middle will get run over if we don't have enough quality running through there.
Was thinking Gulden might be tired but with 5 tackles, 2 scoring shots and a goal assist he's doing fine.

Yep, I agree. We do seem to go OK v Melbourne and they are waiting to be toppled. thankfully Norf couldn't get the job done last week, most other sides would have beaten the Dees last week.

Can't get worse than a week. He may be trying for a downgrade in impact who knows.

hahaha ... try not to think about the pants situation
Why are people dropping heeney?
Melican is ruled out on AFL.com.au
*not that the website is always right.
Judging by the ticket sales... looks like this will be the match of the round... People will be coming to see this. Sydney vs Melbourne... Just by those 2 names alone I'm not surprised tickets selling out quickly.
He got a stinger in the sternum.
Should be Ok with a week off.

Looks to be playing injured. Don't need him out there if he can't play close to his game
Still a forearm to the head no matter what happened in the split seconds beforehand.
