Buddy Predicts BIGGEST Upset Of The Year | AFL Round 17 Preview

Buddy Franklin is back and firing with his hottest tipping streak of the year — and he's got another massive Big Call! In this Round 17 Preview, The boys runs through every game of a full round of footy (finally, no byes!) — from Brisbane's chance to get their season back on track against a rusty, holidaying Geelong, to a Sydney side under real pressure at home against a gritty, resurgent Bulldogs. The boys back the Crows for a huge Perth statement, tip Hawthorn to stay unbeaten in Launceston, and Buddy's Big Call is the biggest upset of the year. Plus, the boys debate whether Gold Coast should finally unleash their struggling No. 1 draft pick, whether Ross Lyon ever cops the scrutiny he deserves at St Kilda, and why Port Adelaide are a genuine danger side.
