Hawthorn 32 points - Too many good players for Geelong to stop. If Hawkins doesn't kick a bag I reckon they'll really struggle.

Freo 7 points - Wet conditions, the Dockers will turn this into an ugly slog & win a close one.

North 26 points - If we play anywhere near our best we'll win, Bombers will struggle to kick a winning score. Wells to have a night out.

Richmond 10 points - If the Tiges get off to a good start they'll be in it up to their necks. All the pressure's on Port remember.

Don't usually predict things, but this is how I see this weekend going.

Hawthorn - 5 points - Although Geelong aren't what they used to be, they always compete very well against the Hawks

Sydney - 22 points - they'll make sure that they get this done & a little bit of greasy conditions & the goat track at ANZ won't stop them.

Essendon - 11 points - NM pissed away a shot at the top 4, Port may have the most pressure on them, but there's a glimmer of expectation for NM to win this, so they will fall in a screaming heap. The following day the coach will inexplicably be resigned for another 7 years.

Port - 48 points - Port over the last 3 weeks have shown that they are coming back to their best at the right time of year. Richmond, have been in form, but just aren't as good. Also playing there 8th elimination final in a row, surely it's got to take it out of them.

Hawks - just
Swans - I hope
Bombers - 27pts
Port - 74pts

I read yesterday that there is every chance the next swans home game could be at the scg due to the NRL get preference over the afl at ANZ.

I was thinking Freo could win but Johnson is a massive out and that should sway it your way

It's going to be a big thud when the Tigers put Port away ... you'd think Port were top and Richmond were bottom without a win all year by the tips. :lol:
