The stakes are continually rising in the AFL, with betting sites again left perplexed last weekend, as leaders Collingwood fell to a humbling defeat on the road at Hawthorn.
Elsewhere, Port Adelaide continued to lose ground at Geelong, whilst Carlton’s excellent run of form continued with an impressive triumph at St Kilda.
This week, we’re backing Carlton to continue their good run, Collingwood to bounce back and West Coast to spring a serious shock.

Table-topping Collingwood have lost their last two and need a response here against Geelong.
The Magpies still have an 8-point lead to the sides chasing them, but they are perhaps playing within themselves with the playoffs looming large.
With only three game weeks to play, it certainly isn’t panic stations for Collingwood, but they won’t want to limp over the line and this test against Geelong promises to be a decent one.
Geelong haven’t set the world alight in recent weeks but their win over Port Adelaide should give them a bit of a boost here.
They sit 9th in the table, in with a playoff shot and they will look to make this as difficult as possible for Collingwood.
However, MCG should be rocking for this one and Collingwood should get back to winning ways.
Best Bet: Collingwood to win the match - $1.81 (Bet365)

In recent weeks, Carlton have been the toast of many multi betting sites with their consistent form helping punters with their AFL bets.
Winning at St Kilda last week has propelled them up to 5th in the AFL table and they are showing no sign of slowing.
In a similar vein, Melbourne have been consistent performers and they too have been backed to the hilt on many AFL betting sites.
Both sides will be bang up for this and it could go either way, but Carlton represent real value in the multi bet and they could get over the line in this one.

Having dwelled at the bottom of the table for the whole season, West Coast Eagles have been the whipping boys for large periods of the campaign.
Many AFL betting sites are regularly offering up huge odds on a West Coast win and that remains true here against Fremantle.
However, with a win against North Melbourne and a single-point loss against Essendon in their last two games, the West Coast Eagles are showing signs of improvement.
They take on a Fremantle side that have only won one of their last 5 games and derby fixtures always add a whole new dimension to things.
Best Bet: West Coast to win the match - $4.5 (Unibet).
