Round 10 AFLW Tips 2026 | SGM Bets & Predictions

Melbourne finally got knocked over again, and this time there were no excuses about running into North. Gold Coast simply outplayed them and gave the Demons a proper reality check.

Richmond’s season is falling apart at the wrong time. Adelaide absolutely controlled them last week and the Tigers have now been belted around by Carlton, Geelong and the Crows in consecutive weeks.

Melbourne should be filthy after last week. Richmond arriving at IKON Park is fairly convenient.

Adelaide finally got back on the winners list and absolutely owned Richmond around the ground. Ebony Marinoff went berserk and the Crows probably should’ve won by even more than they did.

Gold Coast produced an even bigger statement. Beating Melbourne was one thing, but the Suns looked completely comfortable doing it and answered everything the Demons threw at them.

Unley makes this dangerous, but Gold Coast has been too good to jump off now.

This is probably the game of the round.

Carlton has quietly put together three straight wins and looked seriously good putting Sydney away. The Blues are moving the ball beautifully again and suddenly look every bit a top-four side.

The Bulldogs are flying too. They absolutely smoked Essendon last Friday and have weapons everywhere through the middle. Not much between these two at all.

Brisbane’s season is officially a mess. The Lions started well against Hawthorn, then got completely worked over once the Hawks settled.

Port, meanwhile, has suddenly won two in a row. They backed up the Showdown win by just sneaking past West Coast and are finally starting to find some form.

Brisbane at home still deserves respect, but Port is simply playing better footy right now.

West Coast’s winning streak finally ended, but there was nothing disastrous about losing to Port by four points at Alberton. The Eagles were right in it until the end and are still playing some seriously good footy.

Unfortunately, now Geelong arrives. The Cats have won eight straight and absolutely annihilated GWS last week. Their forward line is becoming ridiculous.

The trip west should make Geelong work harder than usual, but they’re miles too hot to tip against.

Collingwood finally looked like they might have found something, then promptly lost to previously winless St Kilda. Very considerate of them to clear that up for us.

The Pies had their chances but just couldn’t finish the job. Sydney was comfortably beaten by Carlton, but they’re still a much better side than Collingwood.

The Swans have dropped a couple lately, so this is exactly the sort of game they need to steady the ship.

GWS desperately needed something against Geelong and instead got absolutely sausaged. The Giants were down early, stayed down and eventually copped another hiding.

Hawthorn responded brilliantly after a couple of rough weeks. Brisbane got the jump on them, but the Hawks settled, took over and ran away with it.

Hawthorn should have far too much quality here and desperately needs this one with finals on the line.

This could get ugly.

Essendon briefly gave supporters hope by finally winning, then the Bulldogs smashed them and reminded everyone where they’re actually at.

North just keeps rolling again. Fremantle made them work for a while, but the Roos eventually broke them apart. Windy Hill isn’t saving Essendon from this lot.

St Kilda finally did it. After eight straight losses and scoring one bloody point the week before, the Saints somehow knocked off Collingwood. Football makes no sense.

Fremantle was beaten by North, but that hardly makes them rubbish. The Dockers actually challenged the Roos for long stretches before North eventually took over.

The Saints should be much more confident now, but travelling to Perth is a fairly brutal follow-up assignment.
