Melbourne Demons vs Brisbane Lions Preview
It’s been a tough month for Melbourne and it doesn’t get any easier this week with the reigning premiers hosting Brisbane on Thursday night.
Melbourne have lost their last 3 games, not something that we expected after winning their first 10 of the season.
Brisbane are coming off a good win over St Kilda but they’re going to be put to the test here.
Dare i say it, potential grand final preview? I’m backing Melbourne, They’re going to turn it around soon but Brisbane should give them a real run for their money here.
Betting Update:
Punters are confident Melbourne will bounce back tonight with the reigning premiers well backed this week.
Melbourne got out to $1.75 during the week but have since shortened into $1.62.
Brisbane supporters could come late but they’ve drifted out to $2.30 after touching $2.10 this week.
