AFL Round 8 Tips
—
Friday 5/5/23
7:50pm Carlton Blues vs Brisbane Lions @ Marvel Stadium
The Lions continued their winning ways with an effortless 115-67 win over Fremantle last week, so they look good to keep that form going.
However, Carlton comes off a 152-44 win over the West Coast Eagles, so it doesn’t get much more emphatic than that.
Bookmakers have Brisbane slightly favored to win and we agree. We think it’s the slightly better team than Carlton at this stage of the season.
Betting tip: Brisbane Lions @ $1.88
Brisbane by 10
Carlton vs Brisbane – 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.
Points should flow freely in this game, so we’re locking in the overs in total match points and Brisbane in head-to-head markets. With a combined 267 points scored last week, they should have no problem putting the ball through the posts for the maximum. Big Joe Daniher scored three goals in the win, so we’re including him to score two or more. He’s averaging 2.3 goals per game, so he’s the best same game multi inclusion.

1:45pm Richmond Tigers vs West Coast Eagles @ MCG
The Tigers don’t have to play overly well to beat the Eagles on Saturday. The Eagles were terrible last week, and although the Tigers weren’t much better, they were better.
Richmond lost 72-48 to the Gold Coast Suns, but there’s a reason why bookmakers have them favoured to win by 38.5 points.
Take the home side to get back to its best.
Betting tip: Richmond Tigers –38.5 @ $1.90
Richmond by 42
Betting Brand for AFL Fans!2:10pm Geelong Cats vs Adelaide Crows @ GMHBA Stadium
We’re not sure how the Adelaide Crows lost last week, but that loss could have a sizable flow-on effect for their season.
Looking to capitalise are the Geelong Cats, who got the better of Essendon 132-104 with a strong performance.
The current line is 31.5, which might be underrating the Crows a touch. They might have lost in dramatic fashion, but they’re not a bad team, so that line is too good to ignore.
Betting tip: Adelaide Crows +31.5 @ $1.90
Geelong by 26
Betting Brand for AFL Fans!4:35pm Gold Coast Suns vs Melbourne @ Heritage Bank Stadium
We expected a good showing from the Suns last week and they didn’t let us down when beating Richmond.
They face another tough game against Melbourne, which showed no mercy when beating the Kangaroos 139-49.
With this game being played in Gold Coast, we’re happy to take the home team +20.5. It’s a fair line for a team that’s growing in confidence.
Betting tip: Gold Coast Suns +20.5 @ $1.90
Melbourne by 14
Betting Brand for AFL Fans!7:25pm GWS Giants vs Western Bulldogs @ Manuka Oval
The Giants pulled off a great win over Sydney last week, scoring 107-106 in a nail-biter.
It should give them confidence heading into this contest against the Bulldogs, who defeated the Hawks 94-65.
Most of the early money has come for the Bulldogs, but we’re happy taking the Giants at the much better head-to-head price.
Betting tip: GWS Giants @ $2.36
GWS by 7
Betting Brand for AFL Fans!7:30pm Fremantle Dockers vs Hawthorn Hawks @ Optus Stadium
If Fremantle can’t beat the Hawks on Saturday, we have given up on them for the rest of the year.
It has been a dismal season to date, but it’s not too late for the Dockers to turn it around and reward the faith of punters.
Bookmakers have the line at 17.5, which is sizable, but at their best, the Dockers could put 40 points on the Hawks.
Betting tip: Fremantle Dockers –17.5 @ $1.90
Fremantle by 21
Betting Brand for AFL Fans!Sunday 7/5/24
1:10pm Port Adelaide Power vs Essendon Bombers @ Adelaide Oval
Port Adelaide did enough to beat the Saints last week, but it wasn’t an overly encouraging performance.
We were more impressed with the losing effort from Essendon against Geelong, so we’re picking an upset on Sunday.
Punters get Essendon at +14.5, and that’s a value line for a team that has shown plenty of ability throughout the year.
Betting tip: Essendon Bombers +14.5 @ $1.90
Essendon by 4
Betting Brand for AFL Fans!3:20pm Collingwood Magpies vs Sydney Swans @ MCG
The Magpies continue to produce brilliance and punters are wondering when it’s going to end.
They had to right to beat Adelaide last week, but this team believes, and that’s dangerous for their opposition.
The Swans have been good at times throughout the year, but with Collingwood going full steam ahead, we expect it to win easily.
Betting tip: Collingwood Magpies –16.5 @ $1.90
Collingwood by 22
Betting Brand for AFL Fans!4:40pm North Melbourne Kangaroos vs St Kilda Saints @ Marvel Stadium
The Saints are favoured by 37.5 points and we’re not surprised, given the poor form once against from the Kangaroos.
It’s going to be another long year for North Melbourne, which just isn’t good enough to keep up with the better AFL teams.
St Kilda should be far too good.
Betting tip: St Kilda Saints –37.5 @ $1.90
