Teams

Greater Western Sydney have made one change to the team that defeated by Gold Coast by 91-points last weekend, bringing in midfielder Toby Greene.

Greene returns to the side after missing after last week's clash due to 'a few niggles' according the the Giants website.


Green replaces Canberra midfielder Jack Steele.

Talking heads

"They're clearly the hardest side in the competition.

"All 22 (players) that roll out for their footy club every week, they all put their head over the footy so it's a good trait to have.

"I think it's going to be a cracking game and it's one that our boys are looking forward too, because it's an opportunity to see where we're at.

"The personnel that they keep bringing in are doing the job.

"Whether it's the first-gamer last week Bailey Williams or Jed Adcock, who is a 200-game player, they've got a really good knack of (saying) one down one in.

"We want to be able get to that stage.

"They're stepping up to the mark and they're a really, really good side.

"The way they beat Melbourne last week was just clinical and it was the same with Adelaide the week before.”
