Johnson v. Melbourne

Note: Fantastic recent record against Melbourne with no scores below 135 in the past four years. He was unstoppable with 199 SC points in Geelong’s 233 to 47 thrashing of Melbourne.
In my opinion despite the absence of usual suspects Fyfe and Pendlebury, there are a couple of good options available this week. The numbers point to Selwood or Johnson against Melbourne as well as Dangerfield against Hawthorn. The other nominations – Gray, Priddis and Goldstein – all have fantastic recent games against their respective opponents as well.
I would pick Goldstein, then Gray and then Selwood.
Good luck all!
