AFL Round 8

Adelaide v Richmond - We know what happened last year but I don't think it will happen again
Essendon v Brisbane - Very tough to pick but I think Essendon might just get over them
Geelong v Fremantle - Hopefully Geelong will keep up their good form
Hawthorn v St Kilda - Another tough game but I think the saints will get up since the hawks are travelling back from Perth on a 6 day break
Kangaroos v Carlton - Kangas will probably be too good
Sydney v Port Adelaide - Port have surprised me a bit this year and are on top of the ladder and I think they will win here again
Western Bulldogs v Collingwood - Another tough one but I think Collingwood will just get over the top of the dogs
West Coast v Melbourne - Pretty easy really
 
Re: AFL Round 8

Adelaide v Richmond
Adelaide by more than 25 goals.

Essendon v Brisbane
Don't like the Bombers form at the moment but home ground advantage should see them home. Just.

Geelong v Fremantle
Cats are on fire, Dockers have a loooong road trip. Driving down to Geelong is worse than a hanging.

Hawthorn v St Kilda
I really like Hawthorn, should've won today, and should win this week. No certainty though.

Kangaroos v Carlton
Roos are hot, hot, hot. Blues are not, not, not.

Sydney v Port Adelaide
We shouldn't lose at home.

Western Bulldogs v Collingwood
Win over Dees will give them confidence, still not convinced on Pies.

West Coast v Melbourne
Landslide.
 
Re: AFL Round 8

Adelaide v Richmond - by 47
Essendon v Brisbane - by 2 - coin toss really, both were rubbish last week
Geelong v Fremantle - by 21 - too strong at home
Hawthorn v St Kilda - by 5 - better side despite 6 day break and trip
Kangaroos v Carlton - by 37
Sydney v Port Adelaide - by 4 - Port very impressive this year
Western Bulldogs v Collingwood - by 17 - too much run and good vs evil
West Coast v Melbourne - by 34

That's what i've heard as well South. Is a real great character, Is the only Sig i have on my homemade jumper, Although after last night i'm gunna get Shane Edwards to sign it :p.

Bad luck tiges, but great effort.
 
Re: AFL Round 8

Didn't like the saint's game plan way too defensive for my liking. Made the game boring to watch. But I watched it.
Good to see that the hawks were able to win it.
