Named on the wing

Named on the wing

No we wasn’t, he was dropped

 

[Areyoufireal]

No we wasn’t, he was dropped

No he wasn't dropped. Hellboys bet is for the Collingwood game which has Phillips named on the wing, not the Essendon Phillips..

I'm surprised some of you are confident enough to bet when you don't know that the Crouch brothers don't get tagged because they're butchers and you can't tell which Phillips is being discussed in a SGM along with other Collingwood players.

Thoughts on the total for Crows v Dons?
123 give or take, usually don’t touch totals but this seems a touch high to me.
Since play resumed only Crows match totals to top that are vs Saints (133), Lions (129) and Power (145).
And obviously those teams did most of the scoring, just don’t think either team has enough firepower to hit this total.

Sorry my bad!

I like Rohan to kick 2+ goals at $4.50 on SportsBet for us Monday. Named at FF and No Ablett or Dahlhaus. Sav will play exclusively ruck with Fort out and no back up either. He’s around $2.50 elsewhere

My bad , I didnt realise it was the Phillips from Collingwood, only noticed it while driving back home.

Adelaide in 2019, at the Adelaide Oval, averaged 146.75 points per game against all opposition (bar Gold Coast) during day or twilight matches. That is equivalent to around 117.4 points per game under the 16 minute quarters. TAB has the line at 123.5 points. My play would be to back more points in the 1st half, and expect a more cagier 2nd half, with teams looking to protect their lead and being a bit more cautious if the match is tight.

Looking at the times of last years matches, this is 12:40 pm ACST kick off, so I don't expect there to be dew. The dew I reckon picks up for the matches at night especially the game last night between Saints and Power.

 

[mac23]

15+ Laird, Doedee, Smith, Saad
20+ B.Crouch, McGrath
25+ M.Crouch
AGS Tippa, Laverde, Zahahrakis, Himmelberg
2+ Walker
$187 (SB Boosted)

Matthew Nicks will do everything it takes to get his first win on the board. If it means playing slow tempo football with some sort of lead in the 2nd half , so be it.

Dons will just want a win on the board, especially in front of the Adelaide crowd. As shown last week, the Crows were good in patches last week, and with the help of the momentum of the crowd, can get close to the Bombers here, and don't be surprised if they pull off the upset.

Either way , I don't reckon this game will be a blow out. Will be pretty close all the way.

 

[NYRB]

out of curiosity is this Himmelberg playing in the Bombers v Crows match related to the one for GWS?

Elliot (Crows) and Harry (GWS) are brothers

 

[Ohh Ok]

Merrett running free, McGrath with the tag

 

[NYRB]

Brad Crouch off for the rest of the game according to Mark Riccuito.

 

[OffTheBit]

Lift your s**t Dev

 

[yousnoozeyoulose]

I've tragically got Leverde for 2+ after the best start possible he went away with an injury, anyone got an update? Is he done?

 

[benji21]

Pies first qtr winner, they are 6 wins 1 draw so far.

 

[NYRB]

Bombers lead clearances 25-13 at Half time, bombers are pretty much getting first use of the ball out of the middle.

With Brad Crouch off for the match, I expect Bombers midfield to continue to get more ball use out of the middle.

 

[Ohh Ok]

3.5u Adams more disposals than Sheed @ $1.70 (BE)

Shuey back in sees Sheed have a small decrease. Adams pure mid.
