AFL Round 6 2007 : Results

 Another big round of games. A few surprising results. I picked 5 winners, which is better than last week BUT I am still coming last in my tipping comp.

On the plus side, the Saints opened the round with a win and the continued their winning streak against the blues - nine in a row! I remember in the 80's when we would always get flogged by the blues, so this is sweet.
