By KELVIN HEALEY

AN unprecedented run of AFL upsets has cost punters about $10 million so far this season.
And the footy tipping shocks are also sweeping offices, pubs and clubs across Australia.
Centrebet manager Gerard Daffy said the record low of 60 per cent of pre-match favourites winning -- a substantial drop from the average of 75 per cent -- had left punters across the nation an estimated $10 million out of pocket.
"This is the worst season (for punters)," he said.
