Would have tipped adelaide anyways. bombers were never a chance

Bulldogs will win if they can kick accurately, all the fans will remember 2008 prelim final if we can carry similar form to the game we had a couple of weeks back we should come out on top. will be game of the round i reckon.

Brisbane, very even game but i think they might get it done up in brissy

St Kilda should win, collingwood are not as good as people think, the saints just seem to be able to grind out victorys even when not playing the greatest (only lost by 2 points to Bombers and 5 points to Kangaroos) but probably should have done a lot better against cellar dwellers melbourne last week
i hope the pies win though lol

This will be the second match they have played at the MCG, the first the game they where behind in for most of the match against Melbourne, the tankers. It should have been like playing against Thomas the tank engine but they really struggled.

Im looking forward to the Geelong and Bulldogs game, should be close. I’m watching the Brisbane & Carlton game with a Blues supporter so lets hope that Brisbane can do me proud.

Adelaide
Geelong
Brisbane
St Kilda…This one worries me, the Saints should get it but at the MCG? I am using both a wish and a prayer.

if the dogs are within striking distance at 3q time they will win. no doubt geelong are a more advanced team but guys like chapman, kelly, ottens and harley have missed heaps of footy and i think the dogs might run all over them. cats have to throw everything at them early so here’s hoping the dogs can withstand the initial onslaught.

Crows should win easily but nobody is expecting the dons to get close which throws in an element of danger, barracking for bombers but adelaide should be too good.

i think carlton can get the job done up in brissie, gibbs and murphy look naturals for finals footy and then you have fev and judd, the key will be stopping brown.

both saints and pies looked ordinary in patches last week so who knows, saints will be harder and apply more pressure buth the pies will play the ground better, i think it will be a tight one with the saints prevailing…just

Definitely agree that Collingwood & the Dogs have the better form, however there seems to be more question marks over Geelong than St Kilda imo.

Adelaide by 10.
Bulldogs by 1
Brisbane by 30
St Kilda in extra time by 8

The big question for this round seems to me to be, do you pick form, or do you pick the better team. This is a bit each way: Bulldogs are the form team to beat the better Geelong, and St Kilda are the better team to beat the form of Collingwood.

Adelaide – Agree with John, Essendon played their grand final last week.
Bulldogs – I have under estimated them (as pointed out this week), so lets see what they can do favourites against Geelong.
Brisbane – Carlton are kidding themselves.
St Kilda – Thinking Collingwood are with a small chance but St Kilda should win.
