Motts

The bake Sam Mitchell gave his boys last week should motivate them through to the end of the season. They’ve got the motivation, do they have the skills and the structures to knock off the ladder-leading Pies?

Both teams had good wins over Top 4 teams last week but you’d think the home ground advantage would be enough to get The Crows the chocolates.

West Coast won this match up last year and come in to the game cock-a-hoop after their stirring 2nd win for the season last week. The Bombers have lost 3 on the trot but having said all that, I’ll still be tipping the Dons.

This is another of those 8 point games. The loser could very well be done for 2023. Looking forward to watching some desperation footy!

A game both coaches would’ve had circled on their calendar for some time.

I found out my postie is a Tigers girl this week. For her sake, I hope the yellow and black get up today (but I honestly can’t see it happening).

The Hawks just missed claiming a scalp last week while the Saints got through in unconvincing fashion against The Roos. I’m tipping a brown and gold upset today.

We got us a good, old fashioned Showdown!

With these two teams sitting in 11th and 12th, you’d say that whoever loses tonight can kiss their 2023 finals aspirations goodbye.
