Round Two of the AFL takes place this weekend with nine matches to contend with and you can back your favourites at Luxbet.

The opening game of the weekend takes place on Thursday with Brisbane playing host to Carlton in what should be an entertaining encounter.

Carlton head into this encounter on the back of a 125-81 win over Richmond Tigers, while Brisbane Lions defeated Melbourne 119-78. The match day betting for this match now sees Brisbane at 3.25 and Carlton at 1.33.

Last year’s minor premiers and Grand Final runners up, the Collingwood Magpies, got off to a poor start last weekend with a 137-115 loss against Hawthorn Hawks and they will be hoping to bounce back against the Richmond Tigers.

The match day betting sees the Magpies backed at 1.15 with the Tigers on offer at a massive 5.25.

Another key clash this weekend sees the reigning champions Geelong Cats play hosts to the dangerous Hawthorn Hawks.

The Cats kicked off their title defence with a disappointing 105-101 loss away at Fremantle, while the Hawks saw off the Magpies and will truly believe that 2012 will be their year.

The match betting has Hawthorn as the clear favourites at 1.60, while the Cats can be backed to claim their first win of the campaign at 2.30.

AFL Round Two and Luxbet Odds:
Brisbane (3.25) v Carlton (1.33)
Essendon (1.20) v Port Adelaide (4.40)
Sydney (1.60) v Fremantle (2.30)
West Coast v Melbourne (8.00)
Adelaide (1.20) v Western Bulldogs (4.40)
Collingwood (1.15) v Richmond (5.25)
North Melbourne (1.01) v Greater Western Sydney (15.00)
St Kilda (1.03) v Gold Coast (11.00)
Geelong (2.30) v Hawthorn (1.60)
