2015 Toyota AFL Premiership Season

Scott Camporeale named Crows coach for the rest of the season, John Worsfold joins the Crows as coaching director.
 
Good luck to him. It will be hard to get the players in the right frame of mind over the next few weeks.
 
Port Adelaide vs. Collingwood
Richmond vs. Carlton
Essendon vs. Melbourne
Western Bulldogs vs. Gold Coast SUNS
North Melbourne vs. Geelong Cats
West Coast Eagles vs. Adelaide Crows
GWS GIANTS vs. St Kilda
Hawthorn vs. Fremantle
Brisbane Lions vs. Sydney Swans

Go you Queenslanders in the Rugby League!

Got the prediction wrong, but Collingwood losing is always nice.
 
I tipped Collingwood last night.

For the rest of the round I will go:
Richmond
Melbourne
Dogs
Geelong
Eagles
GWS
Hawks
Swans

Not at all confident about us beating Freo though
 
Unfortunate that the Hawthorn vs Fremantle game is played in Hobart. You'd get big crowd at the MCG for a potential grand final preview.

Launcecston. I don't mind the fact it is in Tasmania though. Freo would probably have preferred it to be at the 'G so anything to put them off their game works for me.

You're right, North takes home games to Hobart. Fremantle's approach will be interesting. They have only won one of the last 7 vs Hawthorn. They wouldn't want that record hanging over their head before a potential meeting in September or the first Saturday in October this year.
 
Essendon found a way to win, but if Paul Roos doesn't lose some hair or gain some grey hair he never will. Melbourne's profligacy in front of goal has cost them dearly - 7 goals 18 behinds won't win you a game of footy.
 
Hawthorn put on an absolute clinic yesterday.

Unfortunately for Fremantle we not only have their measure in general, but their side is just not dangerous enough to win the big one. It would take a very poor performance from the likes of Sydney or Hawthorn on the day for them to get up, they just can't score freely enough.
 
Roughead and Frawley out and Gunston can't buy a goal and we still thumped them.

Gunston had the flu and was close to being a late withdrawal. But the fact both Roughead and Frawley were out, and we had a combined total of 0 goals from Rioli and Gunston, yet beat the top side by 12 goals, is amazing.
 
The fact we're still scoring so heavily is just amazing.

Some of our ball movement was exceptional, simply cutting straight through Fremantle's zone. Our forwards had a lot of space to exploit all game.
 
Might not be able to get online in the next few days for my tips so I will do them now:

North
Dogs
GWS
Eagles
Sydney
Freo
Melbourne
Port
Richmond

Also, the AA is definitely a joke. Mitchell deserves a lot more than the one (or two?) that he has. Gibson definitely deserves one as well. Is as good as Alex Rance I think but the media fawn over him a lot less.
 
North Melbourne
Western Bulldogs
GWS GIANTS
West Coast Eagles
Hawthorn
Fremantle
Melbourne
Port Adelaide
Richmond
