AFL Round 21 Tips
—
Friday 4/8/23
7:50pm Western Bulldogs vs Richmond Tigers @ Marvel Stadium
Richmond lost to Melbourne last week after holding a lead for much of the game, but it’s good enough to bounce back.
The Bulldogs lost to the Giants, so they’re not firing on all cylinders, and the Tigers at their best are better than the Bulldogs at theirs.
Punters get $2.38 for the Tigers, which is too good to pass up.
Betting tip: Richmond +10.5 @ $1.90

Western Bulldogs vs Richmond – betr Same Game Multi
We’ve teamed up with betr to provide the GoBet Multi for the first game of every round of the 2023 AFL season.
We’re including Richmond +10.5 in our same game multi, which is a great line. The Tigers kept up with Melbourne last week, and they should take confidence from that effort. We expect a low-scoring contest, so include the under total match points. Dustin Martin will feel the need to step up, so include him to score two or more goals. Punters get excellent value for Martin to produce the goods in the goal scoring department.

Saturday 5/8/23
1:45pm Essendon Bombers vs West Coast Eagles @ Marvel Stadium
It was heartbreak for Essendon last week when trying to make a comeback, but it wasn’t meant to be.
However, a win is all but secured against the West Coast Eagles, who won last week, but only narrowly against North Melbourne.
Bookmakers have the line at 50.5, which isn’t easy to cover, but we’re not putting our money on the Eagles.
Betting tip: Essendon –50.5 @ $1.90
Essendon by 55
2:10pm Adelaide Crows vs Gold Coast Suns @ Adelaide Oval
Adelaide typically wins when least expected, which was last week against Port Adelaide.
The Crows won 112-65, so they’ll need to back that up with another big performance against the Suns, who defeated Brisbane with ease.
It won’t be easy, but playing with home field advantage is ideal, and punters get a fair line of 18.5.
Betting tip: Adelaide –18.5 @ $1.90
Adelaide by 24
4:35pm Hawthorn Hawks vs Collingwood Magpies @ MCG
Collingwood didn’t fire a shot last week against Carlton, so it will want to make a good bounce-back performance against Hawthorn.
It shouldn’t be too difficult for the Magpies, who are still the best team in the AFL, and bookmakers have a line reflective of that.
There is 35.5 points between them, and it should result in an easy Collingwood victory and cover.
Betting tip: Collingwood –35.5 @ $1.90
Collingwood by 44
7:25pm Geelong Cats vs Port Adelaide Power @ GMBHA Stadium
The Cats didn’t fire a shot against Fremantle last week, which was a disappointing effort.
They will need to play much better against a Power team who will be keen to get back to their winning ways following a hefty defeat to Adelaide.
It’s a game that could go either way, but with the Cats playing at home, they get the slight edge.
Betting tip: Geelong @ $1.65
Geelong by 10
7:30pm GWS Giants vs Sydney Swans @ GIANTS Stadium
We liked what the Giants offered up when beating the Bulldogs last week, so we’re happy to stick with them over the Swans.
Sydney is a quality team following a narrow win over Sydney, but with the help of a home crowd, the Giants can produce their best.
Bookmakers have the Giants at $1.72, so it’s a close market, and we expect money to come for the Giants closer to game time.
Betting tip: GWS @ $1.72

Sunday 6/8/23
1:10pm North Melbourne Kangaroos vs Melbourne Demons @ Blundstone Arena
The Kangaroos almost scored a rare win over the Eagles, but when you can’t beat the Eagles, you have no chance against Melbourne.
The Demons turned on the jets in the second half against the Tigers, scoring six goals in the final quarter to pull away.
They are one of the best in the AFL and covering the –40.5 line is well within their grasp.
Betting tip: Melbourne –40.5 @ $1.90
Melbourne by 55
3:20pm St Kilda Saints vs Carlton Blues @ Marvel Stadium
It was hard not to be impressed by Carlton last week, and that confidence has affected betting markets against St Kilda.
The Saints also looked good when beating Hawthorn, but Carlton beating the Collingwood Magpies is the best form guide.
Bookmakers have 18.5 points between them, and although the Saints aren’t a walkover team, the Blues should have too much strength.
Betting tip: Carlton –18.5 @ $1.90
Carlton by 22
4:40pm Fremantle Dockers vs Brisbane Lions @ Optus Stadium
Punters never know what to expect from the Dockers, but they looked good when beating Geelong last week.
Brisbane didn’t look good when losing to Gold Coast by 41 points, so we’re surprised by the current betting line of $1.38.
We see value with Fremantle at +17.5.
Betting tip: Fremantle +17.5 @ $1.90
