2023 AFL Round 15 Expert Tips
Thursday June 22nd
We have a fantastic match to get Round 15 underway on Thursday night, with Geelong taking on Melbourne at the Cattery. The Cats desperately need a win to ignite their season, while the Demons will be fighting to stay in the top four.
Friday June 23rd
After a red-hot start to the season, the Saints have taken a dive down the ladder and are now no certainty of playing finals. They'll be keen to get back on the winners list this weekend, but will have to deal with the enigma that is the Brisbane Lions.
Saturday June 24th
First up on Saturday we head to NSW where the Swans will be hosting the Eagles at the SCG. The Eagles have been getting battered all season long but will be hoping their Round 14 bye will rejuvenate their list. Can they dig in and potentially cause an upset against the Swans or will it be another one-sided loss for the visitors?
One of the most intriguing and important fixtures in Round 15 is the Saturday night Fremantle vs Essendon matchup. The Dockers have lost a couple in a row and need to steady the ship, while the Bombers are looking to continue their march towards a finals berth. Who wins this evenly poised encounter?
Sunday June 25th
After a freshen up in Round 14, Collingwood and Adelaide will do battle at the MCG this Sunday. The Magpies had a dream first half of the season albeit losing last time out, whereas the Crows have surprised a few with how competitive they've been in 2023. This should be another great contest.
The final match of Round 15 isn't the sexiest on paper, but it could prove to be a tight and tough battle. The Suns were embarrassed by the Blues last weekend and need to bounce back immediately, but an up-and-coming Hawks outfit will certainly offer some resistance.
