Whateley
Sydney vs. Melbourne preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

The ability for the Swans to hunt post-clearance, I think they're going to be quicker than Melbourne.

Whateley

I think they're going to be... I think they're going to hunt that loose ball a little bit faster than what Melbourne can.

Whateley
Sydney vs. Melbourne preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

And I think Swans are probably a bit more advanced with that contested balance around being tough inside, being clean inside, and then spreading harder post-contest.

Whateley
Sydney vs. Melbourne preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

I think that's where the Swans might have the advantage in this one.

Whateley
Sydney vs. Melbourne preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

But...

Whateley
Sydney vs. Melbourne preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

I just think they might be able to do it for a little bit longer than what Melbourne can, you know, despite them having very similar game styles.

Whateley
Sydney vs. Melbourne preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

But to Melbourne's credit, they've shown the ability early on to never give up, and they've come from behind to win a couple of these sort of games.

Whateley
Sydney vs. Melbourne preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

I think the Swans will win it, but don't forget, the Demons beat the Swans in this โ€“ or at round 11 last year, they beat them by 53 points.

Whateley
Sydney vs. Melbourne preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

So Demons can find a way to beat the Swans, but it just feels like as much as I've just pumped up what Kingy's doing โ€“

Whateley

At the Demons, it just feels like the Swans have got so many weapons at their disposal, and I think it might be a 30-point-plus win to the Sydney Swans in this one.

Whateley

I was going to say, the SCG is a different place to play footy when the Swans obviously play that ground so well.

Whateley
Sydney vs. Melbourne preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

But credit to the Demons, they're doing a lot of things right.

Whateley
Carlton vs. St Kilda preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

Well, it's interesting.

Whateley
Carlton vs. St Kilda preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

And we did the same thing last year.

Whateley
Carlton vs. St Kilda preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

And I don't know if it was last week or the week before when I was driving in, I heard Simo talking about St Kilda.

Whateley
Carlton vs. St Kilda preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

And it's exactly as we discussed late last year where St Kilda's profile is really interesting.

Whateley
Carlton vs. St Kilda preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

They are the AFL average.

Whateley
Carlton vs. St Kilda preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

So, um, and, and Simo mentioned like they're not number one or number two or even top four at anything, um,

Whateley
Carlton vs. St Kilda preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

But they're also not bottom two or bottom four at anything else either.

Whateley
Carlton vs. St Kilda preview | Strategy 2026 with Brenton Sanderson (30.04.26)

They're actually, and I'm going to bore you just for 30 seconds.
