This week Robbie Von and Nick reunite to break down the biggest games of the round, including the South Australian Derby, the ANZAC Day blockbuster between Essendon and Collingwood, a flying Fremantle hosting a Carlton side in crisis, and much more. They also dive deep into their AFL same game multi (SGM) picks, covering disposal props and value legs across five key matches with odds ranging from $2.10 to $5.25. The boys also check in on their $100 to $1000 challenge — still very much alive at $600 in the bank — with Nick backing a three-legger involving Geelong, Sydney and Gold Coast to get them back to $800 and set Robbie up for the big finish next week. And don't go anywhere at the end, because Nick drops his Morphettville Derby tips for the weekend, including his two key runners — one a short-priced favourite, the other an each-way play at $5.50 that he reckons is the other horse in the race.
