Would surprise me - have beaten them once since 2018 & have had a number of blow out losses. Up there with them coming off a bye, 10 goal plus game i can see coming. Hopefully wrong but we have really struggled with the Lions for a while now

Going with this also, only other "upset" might be West Coast as I don't trust the Giants.

Saints to beat the hawks is my "upset".

This is the type of game Gold Coast will somehow slip up in. Essendon are depleted but can just see GC stuffing it up somehow

Yep, and the Bombers are due for a good game.
GC by 50+

Sydney are $1.59 v Fremantle $2.58 in the only game where the bottom 9 is favorite over the top 9 side.
So in actual fact Fremantle is an "upset" according to the markets. Either side by 24 or less @ $1.78 is in my multi, can't split that one.
I don't think in any of the other 8 games the under dog has a chance.
