AFL: SYDNEY TEAMS STAMP FLAG CLAIMS
2 years ago - Sportingbase
THE opening round experiment of holding four matches in the Northern States almost produced the perfect result for the home teams.
If it wasn’t for Carlton’s amazing comeback from 48 points down against the Lions it would have been four out of four for the home teams.
The two Sydney teams Greater Western Sydney and Sydney both put their hands up as legitimate premiership chances.
The Giants firmed into equal favourite for the AFL flag at $6 with Brisbane and Collingwood with PlayUp. The Swans are $9.
While in Queensland the Gold Coast’s first half against Richmond showcased their immense strengths which would have thrilled their new coach Damian Hardwick.

The Suns are $34 to win the flag with PlayUp.
Brisbane’s first half was also sublime, but they fell into a hole in the second half.
The GWS Giants had little trouble dealing with last year’s Premiers Collingwood in an ominous display.
They continued on from their form at the end of last season. They have a strong defence and a potent forward line.
Sydney showed their great depth in the first game of the round when they comfortably defeated Melbourne.
The Gold Coast led by Matt Rowell made the Tigers look like witches’ hats in the first half.
The first full round kicks off on Thursday night when the marauding Blues take on Richmond.
