As far as dark horses go, Melbourne would have to be at the top of the list.<\/p>\n

The Dees are the first team most opponents wouldn\u2019t want to play come September, as evidenced last week when they took care of Fremantle by four points, led by five clutch goals in the final term.<\/p>\n

Port has nothing left to play for at this point other than spoiling ladder positions for teams like Melbourne hoping to edge their way into the Top 4.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the injury bug has made life incredibly difficult for the last six weeks, which led to the Swans piling on 11 goals in the second term last week at the SCG.<\/p>\n

The Dees don\u2019t have the best track record at the Adelaide Oval, highlighted by a shock loss to Essendon during Gather Round. But with a chance to boost their percentage, Steven King should be stressing the importance of a win.<\/p>\n

Prediction: Melbourne 1-39 @ $2.20<\/p>\n

Value: Melbourne to Win & Under 182.5 Total Points<\/p>\n
