SEN’s expert AFL tips for Round 22 from Lyon, Russell, Whateley and more

Round 22 is here as things really begin to tighten near the top.

Things begin on Thursday with the 7th-place Hawks meeting the 2nd-placed Pies in a massive clash at the 'G.

Friday sees the Cats host the Dons in Geelong, where everyone's eyes will be on Jeremy Cameron's 100-goal push instead of the result.

Saturday's highlight is the Brisbane v Sydney clash at the Gabba, while Gold Coast and Fremantle will need to keep winning before Sunday is home to a few lopsided encounters.
