AFL Round 21 in the 2024 premiership season is another full round with nine matches on the Schedule. Action begins on Friday with a special double-header that sees the Bulldogs vs Demons fixture followed by the Eagles vs Suns. Super Saturday will see a four-match slate play out with two blockbusters in the 7:30pm (AEST) slots, including the Magpies vs Blues which is Pendlebury's 400th game. Round 21 will conclude on Sunday where the usual three-game slate will play out, and it's the Giants vs Hawks which looks to be the match of the day and potentially the round.

2024 AFL Round 21 Tips
Friday August 2nd
The Bulldogs are flying right now and will be looking to put the final nail in the Demons coffin to kick off Round 21. This is the first of two games on Friday night!
Second to get underway on Friday night is the Eagles vs Suns out west. The Eagles have been poor again this campaign although they might fancy their chances against the Suns who have been horrible on the road.
Saturday August 3rd
The Kangaroos and the Tigers do battle in the first of four games on Saturday. Likely to decide who 'wins' the wooden spoon, a lot of eyes will be watching this one with interest.
The Cats and the Crows do battle in the Saturday twilight fixture this weekend. The Crows were embarrassed by the Hawks most recently and it's hard to see them bouncing back here.
All eyes will be on Scott Pendlebury in this fixture as he plays his 400th game for the Magpies. It just so happens to be their arch rivals in the Blues who they'll face.
Another cracking Saturday night fixture pits the Power against the Swans in an important matchup for both clubs. Surely the Swans are due for a bounce back performance?
Sunday August 4th
What a cracker we have on Sunday to get the day's three-game slate underway. Both in form, the Giants and the Hawks are sure to put on a show at Manuka.
The Bombers' season is in freefall and a win on Sunday is absolutely paramount. It certainly won't come easy however, as they'll be taking on one of the best teams in the competition in the Dockers.
To conclude Round 22 we have an interesting contest between the Saints and the Lions. The Saints have been on the improve in recent weeks and might be able to test the Lions here.
