Sydney and Perth are locked in third and fourth on the ladder with the same point-percentage heading into their final two games of the regular season. A loss for either team could open the door for South East Melbourne to snatch home court in the play-in.
Sydney have under-achieved on expectation this season, yet they are still in prime position for a good run at the Championship. This matchup against Perth after not playing since Friday last week will say a lot about their true chances.
