AFL tips: Herald Sun experts pick their winners for round 21

WITH just three rounds remaining in the AFL home and away season, things are getting tight in the Herald Sun tipping competition.

WITH just three rounds remaining in the AFL home and away season, things are getting tight in the Herald Sun tipping competition.

Jon Ralph, currently in Rio covering the Olympics, has maintained his lead over our field of expert tipsters. He’s just one clear of fellow Herald Sun tipster Scott Gullan — also thousands of miles away from the footy in Rio!

The pair each tipped six winners last week while Tim Watson, in equal second with Scotty, could only manage five. Maybe distance is the key to good tipping?!

The top three have pinched a mini break on the pack, but with several tipsters eager to make ground in the coming weeks expect some bold tipping — and upset results.
