AFL 2025: Round 19 in Focus
Essendon vs GWS Giants
Giants to win by 40+ points
Round 19 opens at Marvel Stadium on Thursday night, where Essendon face a GWS side hunting a fifth win in six games. The Bombers once again looked short of any bang in their loss to lowly Richmond last week and are still without a key midfield drive, while the Giants are surging at the right time.
We’re backing GWS to win comfortably.
Brisbane vs Western Bulldogs
Lions to win by 25+
Friday night at the Gabba sees Brisbane return home to take on the Bulldogs after dismantling Carlton during Round 18. The Lions are looking every bit a top-two threat, while the Dogs, beaten by Adelaide last week, will be eager to prove that was a blip as they look to get back to winning ways.
Still, we’re backing Brisbane’s midfield to overwhelm the Dogs and power them to a strong win.
Hawthorn vs Port Adelaide
Hawks to win by 1–39 points
Hawthorn returns to the MCG on Saturday for a clash against Port Adelaide that looks more than winnable. Port did enough against the Eagles in Round 17, but as this season has shown, a win over West Coast is hardly a barometer for success, as they sit bottom of the ladder, having lost 16 times in 17 games.
We’re backing the Hawks to bounce back at home, but Port should make them earn it.
Sydney vs North Melbourne
Swans to win with -36.5 handicap
The SCG hosts a must-win for Sydney on Saturday as they look to stay in the finals hunt against North Melbourne. The Swans showed grit to edge the Saints last week and now face a North side that struggles to maintain pressure beyond a half.
We’re backing the Swans to take control early in and see out the game.
Carlton vs Melbourne
Demons to win by 1–39 points
Saturday night at the MCG features two sides desperate to rescue their seasons as Carlton takes on Melbourne. The Demons broke their losing run against North last week while the Blues’ form nosedived further in a 37-point loss to Brisbane.
We’re backing the Dees to grind this out and make it two wins from two.
West Coast vs Richmond
Tigers to win by 1–39 points
Saturday night in Perth gives Richmond a rare opportunity to go back-to-back when they clash with West Coast. The Tigers finally snapped a seven-game skid in Round 18 while embattled West Coast fought hard against Port but couldn’t hold on, and still sit rooted to the bottom.
We’re backing the Tigers to travel well enough and find the moments they need to edge clear at Optus during the battle of the cellar dwellers.
Geelong vs St Kilda
Cats to win with -33.5 handicap
Sunday afternoon at GMHBA Stadium gives Geelong the perfect reset after falling away late against a determined GWS in Round 17, when they go up against St Kilda. The Saints’ season is all but over after another narrow loss, and the Cats will be out to make a statement at home.
We’re backing Geelong to pull away in the second half and cover the line with room to spare.
Collingwood vs Fremantle
Pies to win by 1–39 points
Sunday twilight at the MCG pits first against eighth as Collingwood looks to rebound from their shock loss on the Gold Coast last week. Fremantle have now won seven of their last eight, with the only slip-up coming in Round 17 against Sydney. However, the Pies rarely dish up back-to-back flat performances, especially at home.
We’re backing the Magpies to lift when it matters and get back on track with a narrow win.
Adelaide vs Gold Coast
Crows to win by 1–39 points
Round 19 closes at Adelaide Oval in what could be the game of the round as Adelaide go head-to-head with Gold Coast. Both sides arrive off big wins; the Suns having stunned the Pies, while Adelaide held firm to see off the Bulldogs. This one should go the distance and serve up a cracking contest for the neutrals.
We’re backing the Crows’ forward depth and home-ground advantage to get them over the line — but just.
