Melbourne welcome back gun forward Bayley Fritsch as they look to head into finals on a winning note against a Sydney outfit with a home final to play for. Join The Roar for live scores from 3:20pm (AEST).
Fritsch’s return comes at a perfect time for Melbourne just a fortnight out from a qualifying final, most likely against Collingwood. However, unless one of Brisbane or Port Adelaide lose, the Demons will be unable to move from fourth spot regardless of whether they win or lose.
The Swans, meanwhile, sealed a finals berth with last week’s controversial win over Adelaide, but thanks to St Kilda’s loss yesterday, can book a home elimination final to boot and continue their stunning late-season resurgence.
