AFL Round 9 Tips
—
Friday 12/5/23
7:20pm Richmond Tigers vs Geelong Cats @ MCG
The Tigers got their season back on track with a win over West Coast last week, which could see them play with confidence on Friday night.
However, they come up against the Cats, who won 98-72 against a sticky Adelaide Crows, so they’re also playing with confidence.
Bookmakers have the Cats at –25.5, but the Tigers could keep it close.
Betting tip: Richmond Tigers +25.5 @ $1.90
Geelong by 18
Richmond vs Geelong – 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 happy to take the Tigers +25.5 in our same game multi, which also includes the unders in the total match points in what could be a low-scoring test. Both teams have solid defence, which could see a scoreline of around 88-70 to the Cats. We’re also including Dion Prestia to score two or more goals. He was in fine form against the Eagles, so look for midfielder to have another big impact.

Betting Brand for AFL Fans!8:40pm West Coast Eagles vs Gold Coast Suns @ Optus Stadium
There isn’t much going right for the Eagles, who have only one win next to their name in 2023.
That should leave the door open for the Gold Coast Suns, who tested the Melbourne Demons with a 90-85 loss last week.
A repeat of that performance sees them pile on the points against West Coast, so take them at –21.5.
Betting tip: Gold Coast Suns –21.5 @ $1.90
Gold Coast by 32
Betting Brand for AFL Fans!Saturday 13/5/23
1:45pm Sydney Swans vs Fremantle Dockers @ SCG
We were disappointed with the Swans effort against Collingwood, but they came up against a buzzsaw.
The Swans have played well enough this season to suggest they can beat the Dockers, who were impressive when beating Hawthorn 117-48.
If the real Fremantle comes out to play, it could win. However, the Swans are the better team, and they should come away with a comfortable win.
Betting tip: Sydney Swans –22.5 @ $1.90
Sydney by 27
Betting Brand for AFL Fans!2:10pm North Melbourne Kangaroos vs Port Adelaide Power @ Blundstone Arena
The dreadful run continues for North Melbourne, which managed just 34 points against the St Kilda Saints on Sunday.
The Kangaroos have been very poor, which is saying something, and now they face Port Adelaide, which defeated Essendon in a close contest.
Bookmakers have 29.5 points between them, but even 40 points might not be enough for the Kangaroos to cover the spread.
Betting tip: Port Adelaide Power –29.5 @ $1.90
Port Adelaide by 40
Betting Brand for AFL Fans!4:35pm Hawthorn Hawks vs Melbourne Demons @ MCG
Bookmakers have the line at 42.5 points, which is big, but warranted given the form of the two clubs.
Hawthorn comes off a poor 117-48 loss to the Dockers, and Melbourne defeated a tough Gold Coast team 9-85, so that leads to a one-sided contest on Saturday.
Covering spreads that big is never easy, but we expect the Demons to race out to a huge lead in the first half and never look back.
Betting tip: Melbourne Demons –42.5 @ $1.90
Melbourne by 50
Betting Brand for AFL Fans!7:25pm Brisbane Lions vs Essendon Bombers @ Gabba
The Brisbane Lions have played well so far, which is why they’re the firm $1.21 favourites to beat an always-tough Essendon side.
We think Essendon is good enough to keep this game close after pushing Port Adelaide close last week, so the +27.5 line is ideal.
Expect a close game at the Gabba.
Betting tip: Essendon Bombers +27.5 @ $1.90
Brisbane by 16
Betting Brand for AFL Fans!7:30pm Carlton Blues vs Western Bulldogs @ Marvel Stadium
There isn’t much between Carlton and the Bulldogs with bookmakers, but we give the edge to Carlton.
It was beaten by Brisbane last week, but the Blues get time to recover and prepare for the Bulldogs, who defeated GWS.
There is plenty of class with the Bulldogs, but we can’t turn down $1.94 for Carlton, which is one of the better teams on its day.
Betting tip: Carlton Blues @ $1.94
Carlton by 10
Betting Brand for AFL Fans!Sunday 14/5/23
1:20pm Adelaide Crows vs St Kilda Saints @ Adelaide Oval
It’s another close contest with bookmaker as the Crows take on the Saints this Sunday.
Adelaide comes off a loss to the Cats, but it battled gamely, and its form prior was tough to overlook. The Crows pushed Collingwood to the brink, so the form stacks up.
St Kilda has also been playing well, but beating North Melbourne isn’t always an ideal form guide.
Betting tip: Adelaide Crows @ $1.65
Adelaide by 12
Betting Brand for AFL Fans!4:40pm Collingwood Magpies vs GWS Giants @ MCG
Collingwood is in rare form and it’s firming with AFL premiership markets, so the Giants could be up against it on Sunday.
The Magpies are playing with more confidence of any team in the competition, and although the Giants are good on their day, the Magpies are better.
They are good enough to cover the 34.5-point spread.
Betting tip: Collingwood Magpies –34.5 @ $1.90
