Who's going to win and why?

IMO a few Round 1 winners will go down - we could be in the top 4 at the end of the weekend. :D

FWIW, here's mine

Lions (Pies defence to get a nasty reality check @ the Gabba)

Bulldogs (Dees simply a bottom 4 side)

Eagles (IIRC they have a good record at AAMI and Cox will teach the young Crows rucks a lesson)

Saints (Blues are rubbish)

Dockers (IIRC Hawks have a poor record @ Subi)

Swans (Ditto Port @ the SCG)

Cats (too classy for the promising Bombers)

North (presume they'll bounce back, but could be an upset)

Agree all, except I think the Crows might win at home. The Crows could have been winners in round one except for an errant shot in the dieing seconds. Eagles are not as good with a depleted midfield.

Ditto.

Should be an interesting round. Many tippers will go with most of the round 1 winners but i can see a few who will get up such as Freo over the Hawks, Crows over WCE.

I reckon there were a few more. Like who ever played Melbourne, Richmond, Essendon and Carlton.

Great to see a few round 1 premiers teams (Pies, Bombers & Tigers) getting a douse of reality in round 2.

I got 7 this week...stupidly tipped West Coast over Adelaide...not sure why..i thought it was a "safe tip" but i shoulda realised Adelaide were competitive last week and stuck to that motto "When In Doubt, Tip Home Teams Early In The Year"

Round 3 is going to throw some people off course. Rivalry Round brings the best out of most teams. Id say 5 would be very good for next week.

Dogs V STK
Roos V Hawks
WCE V Freo
Lions V Swans
Dons V Blues
Cats V Melb
Tiger V Pies
Crows V Port

Only 1 of them is a 100% cert. The rest could go either way.
