Show Preview
Essendon welcome back Jake Stringer and Sam Draper for their must-win clash with GWS, with the loser’s finals hopes officially over. Join The Roar for live scores from 4:35pm (AEST).
Both teams have a series of handy ins for this early elimination final, with Stringer and Draper returning for the Bombers after lengthy absences, while the Giants have small forward pair Brent Daniels and Toby Bedford back in the fold after one-week suspensions.
The Giants’ surge towards September has hit a snag with two consecutive losses to leave them outside the eight with two games to go and a tough final-round clash with Carlton. Defeat here will ensure despite positive signs under new coach Adam Kingsley, making it to the last eight will be beyond them.
Venue: Giants Stadium, Sydney
