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.

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

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.
