the story so far 10-8
round 7 picks
Richmond vs Essendon-25.5
pick essendon -25.5
This should be a crackerjack game expect it to be tight until half time but i just feel that Richmond has been up for awhile and is due for a loss.The key to this match is Fletcher vs Richardson, Fletcher has been only in fair form this year and after lowering his colours to Wilson last week expect him to be primed for a big one.Ottens could prove a danger especially if he plays forward.Expect the johnson boys and hardwick to ruffle a few feathers early in this game epecially targetting Campbell and Daffy.Essendon to strong and to cover the line
st.kilda vs Hawthorn-18.5
pick Hawthorn-18.5
Although st.kilda won last week at times their skill errors were woeful and with a strong backline that takes alot of marks like Hawthorn's they will need to improve to impose a threat.Loosing aussie jones to injury will hurt as he was starting to play good football,Hamill will need to lift put a positive was gehrig,loewe and burke who were all fantastic,expecting a let down for the saints after the significance of last week.
Collingwood vs Kangaroos+13.5
pick Collingwood -13.5
Carey back should make a difference but Mckernan still proving to be a liability how much longer Pagan will put up with this is anyones guess.Pagan may look at some more players who are performing in the twos,but most are struggling to make the next step.There is a huge difference between the kangaroos elite six or seven players to the rest of the list.They need to find some speed through the midfield to shut collingwoods speedsters down.Buckley will no doubt get simpson but simpson has really struggled this year.Just feel the pies are match hardened after two big games and have a team that is not carrying any passengers.
Geelong vs Carlton-13.5
pick Carlton-13.5
Geelongs midfield is woeful at present and Carlton's is stronger at present.Geelong has no match up for Kouta unless they use ben graham but highly unlikely most likely Harley when kouta goes forward.Geelong has had the wood on Carlton of late but expect that to end in this game
Good luck to all
