We are expecting a fast and physical game this weekend. The Western Magic enjoyed a week off last week after winning straight through to the Grand Final while the West Sydney Magpies displayed some impressive skill defeating the Minor Premiers St George and the North Shore Bombers this finals series. Last time the two teams met was in the last round of the year, where West Sydney Magpies took the victory by 12 points. Expect this one to go down to the wire.
