[macca23]

Early tips for Round 19 are

GEELONG to beat Melbourne (50-50, no idea really)
ADELAIDE to beat West Coast (60-40, genuinely believe we can do it.)
COLLINGWOOD to beat Brisbane (50-50, but the Pies are at home)
ST. KILDA to beat Richmond (50-50)
SYDNEY to beat Hawthorn (reasonably confident)
PORT ADELAIDE to beat Carlton (confident)
ESSENDON to beat Western Bulldogs (confident)
KANGAROOS to beat Fremantle (70-30)

This is one very tough round.

Here are my earlies for this round

GEELONG to beat Melbourne (50-50, I have no idea. This one will come down as to who is more desperate for priority picks)
ADELAIDE to beat West Coast (50-50, Will be tough but I beileve we can do it.)
COLLINGWOOD to beat Brisbane (50-50, gone with the home team but I wouldn't be surprised if Brisbane got over the line)
ST. KILDA to beat Richmond (50-50, I have no idea.)
SYDNEY to beat Hawthorn (reasonably confident, can't really pick against Sydney in Sydney)
PORT ADELAIDE to beat Carlton (very confident)
ESSENDON to beat Western Bulldogs (confident, Essendon must win to stay in the hunt for top 8)
KANGAROOS to beat Fremantle (50-50 but Kangas might bounce back after a big loss to lions)

You are right macca23, this round is a toughie

[macca23]

6/8 this week, which will be 7/8 at work as they pay the draw. Pleased with that, and hopefully should hang onto my lead of 1.

Early tips this coming week, in what looks like an easy round (and we know there's no such animal) are


Hawthorn to beat Carlton (confident)

Essendon to beat Fremantle (confident)

Adelaide to beat Kangaroos (confident)

Brisbane to beat Geelong (confident)

Sydney to beat Collingwood (confident)

St Kilda to beat Bulldogs (confident)

Port Adelaide to beat Richmond (confident)

West Coast to beat Melbourne (confident)

 

[DaveW]

I got 5/8, discounting the draw. I was very happy with West Coast failing to win and Sydney getting up... can't say I was too happy with getting Friday night's one wrong though!

And shame to those who tipped against us all in the name of trying to win a few bucks!

Only toughie for next week is Essendon-Fremantle... we want the Dockers to lose, so maybe I should tip them just to guarantee it.

Same...

But I think the Essendon-Fremantle match is dicey; I'm surprised the Bombers are such hot favourites with the bookies.

Collingwood are also a decent chance to get up.

I'm with you m23, but perhaps I'm a little less than fully confident of a couple!

I agree macca23 but maybe not as confident with Sydney-Collingwood and Freo-Esendon could go either way.
