Not sure about Adelaide and West Coast. I feel the Eagles may bounce back after last week and Adelaide have a down week after such a big win.
Brisbane should beat Gold Coast, I think it will be close. Brisbane 1-39 for me.
Bulldogs and Carlton is a scrub match. Won't be surprised to see Bulldogs get the upset of the round here.
Port should kill Melbourne up in Darwin. -7.5 seems very low. Is it a trap?
Swans to continue on with their juggernaut and roll over the Saints. Swans to cover and 40+, again... Don't scoff HoH, you heathen
Even though they suck balls Richmond may bounce back after getting done by the Suns. If it's a dry day I think Over anything under 200 is the play on that.
Think Fremantle are giving up too many points here. Giants to bounce back with a somewhat more respectable loss.

my early thoughts:
Essendon look like they have a few more goals in them, although both sides missing alot of players.
agree buddy out makes collingwood look a decect chance.
initially i was thinking adelaide may win comfortably. they bring in six experienced players who are probably in their best 25 as i see it and drop weaker players. WC have some notable inclusions and their side looks alot better on paper but shuey is still missing making their midfield the weaker. maybe adelaide 1-39.
was leaning GC. they have alot of their better players back and should be keen for it after a win unless too much partying. rich out for brisbane. GC beat them last year at home. GC has only be beaten by a bigger margin twice at home this season and kept five games fairly close. wouldn't be suprised if brisbane smashed them but i think i will play GC.
WB pretty much refuse to kick the ball into their forward line and have the scores to show it 56, 56, 57 and 44 in the past four weeks. Carlton side looks weak but they should kick 10 goals or more and the way Bulldogs are playing doesn't seem that likely. Carlton 1-39.
Hard to get too excited about backing Port but they do look the better side to me also.
Sydney were pretty hideous last time out against SK so you think they would be up for this. however if you look at who Sydney has played in the last 8 weeks or so i think they are somewhat overated due to weak opposition. SK seem to vary between looking like they ordinary and about the 10th best team in the comp and top four material. maybe play sydney 1-39. maybe over a low total if it rains.
agree richmond likely to play better. martin should be up for it after his suspension.
GWS fielding a weak team tempted to believe fremantle cover.
