I’m back this week after a short break with the best odds for round 16 of the AFL. We’ve been spoiled the last two weeks, round 14’s highly anticipated match between the two undefeated sides was every bit as good as we expected it would be. St. Kilda proving they have what it takes to topple the mighty Geelong. Last week’s Friday night game between the Western Bulldogs and Collingwood was another thrilling game, ending with a 1 point win to the Pies. At the moment, those four teams look like they’ll be the real chances come September.

On to this week, I’m tipping all the favourites in what looks to be a relatively easy round of footy tipping, although the last three games do look like they could be close. If Dean Cox was playing, I’d probably say that West Coast were a good chance to upset the struggling Port Adelaide, who went down to Melbourne last week. Without the big man though, I don’t see them getting the win.

Richmond Vs. Kangaroos is a game I think could really go either way, depending on which sides come to play on Sunday. Of the last three matches between these two sides, the away side has come away with the points, and I think that trend will continue this week.

In the last game of the round, we will see how far Adelaide has come this year. We know they can play some good football, and the Saints were a little bit off last week. Ultimately though, it would be a brave man to tip against the undefeated Saints at home.
