Aussie Rules season kicking off tonight...

Fremantle and Sydney tipped for title

BrisVegas - 14 March 2014

With the Madness of March heading into a frenzy in the USA for NCAA college basketball, Australian football codes Rugby League which kicked off last week and this weekends AFL kickoff for 2014 starts an exciting march to the "Splendour of September" for the clubs involved. 

The Fremantle Dockers and Sydney Swans start as odds on favourites for the 2014 AFL title with the Dockers taking on Collingwood at Ethiad Stadium tonight. Collingwood will be a tough out in Melbourne but if the Dockers are true contenders, they must pass this initial test.

Picks for the week:

Collingwood vs Fremantle
Fremantle by 14

GWS Giants vs Sydney Swans
Sydney should not be tested in this one and will hope to get out of the match injury free.
Sydney by 40+

Gold Coast Suns vs Richmond Tigers
Close one on the Coast but tipping the Suns
Gold Coast by 12

Carlton Blues vs Port Adelaide Power
You never know with this as an opener but will give the early season nod to Carlton...regretfully!!
Carlton by 8

With Round One being a split round, the action continues on Thursday and I'll be back with the rest of the tips.

Enjoy the action.
