COLLINGWOOD have again assumed the mantle of outright favourite for the AFL flag after two amazing come from behind wins in the space of six days last week.

The Magpies mowed down Essendon to win on Anzac Day in the final quarter and then managed to get up in the closing stages to defeat Adelaide at the Adelaide Oval on Sunday.

Under coach Craig McCrae they have an unbelievable self-belief and have the confidence to back in their fitness to win a match.

They will be strengthened when their rucks Darcy Cameron and Dan McStay will return from injuries. They are $4.50 outright favourite with TopSport.

The Geelong Cats have a poor start have put together a quartet of easy wins and they have now firmed into $5 equal second favourite with Melbourne who had a good week with a hard fought win against Richmond and then a mauling of North Melbourne.

The biggest drifters in the betting from the start of the season have been Richmond.

They were $8 going into the season but are not $51. They have only won one match and a draw from seven games.

They are struggling in the forward line without Tom Lynch being available. They will need to kick start their season with a win against the Eagles at the MCG this Saturday.
