Definitely try to get to a Swans game in Sydney. Watch for Paul Kelly (#14) and Michael O'Loughlin (#19). Both are excellent players.

In Melbounre, try to get to a Kangraoo game and watch Wayne Carey (#18 in blue and white stripes). He is rated THE best player in the comp - he's been compared to Michael Jordan and it is not an exaggeration. He is THAT good.
I just checked my swchedule and the Roos play the Essendon Bombers on March 30 at the MCG. Essendon won last year's Grand Final (equivalent of the Super Bowl). The Roos won it in 1999. So it will be a massive blockbuster game at the best stadium in Australia - the Melbourne Cricket Ground. I believe the MCG also has a number of displays of memorabilia, so get there early and enjoy the atmosphere.
