Any reasoning behind this or just going with your gut?
Roos look rejuvenated these last couple of weeks and the odds are against the Hawks to keep this winning streak going. Law of averages. Last time they played the kangas should have won and would have if not for inaccurate kicking. I would have been more confident had the game been at Etihad but in any case I think Roos +21.5 is a very good bet.

That is not how averages work. If I flip a coin on average it will come up heads 50% of the time. If it comes up tails and I flip it again does that mean its more likely to come up heads now? no, it's still a 50% chance.

The three weather models I look at to see if rain is a strong chance are conflicting with each other....The U.S. and the European models are in agreement of rain showers throughout the day in Perth.The Bureau of meteorology is showing rain showers earlier in the day and then again closer to nightfall!

There will be definitely a good amount of precipitation occurring in Perth this weekend,still to far out to know with any confidence of when.
Hey free at last. Do you have access to any weather modelling for the cricket in Sri Lanka? Cheers
 
My logic was that was it? it was a small part a...................

I havent shot any1 in the foot for having an opinion. If you posted logical reasoning behind your opinion kangas will win, fair enough. But you didnt. Sounded more like a gut feel. Please feel free to go through my posts and you may discover this. Ive been wrong plenty of times, and ive been right plenty of times (more so right lately :D).

Your comments regarding 99% people in here not knowing what they are doing and that most people fall in the red is also fairly chilidsh and unbased.

Let's see if we can make a case for the Kangaroos?

In Melbourne vs top 8 teams they have won 2 and lost 2, however, the loss to Geelong was unavoidable due to injuries and they were up by 2 goals at half time. Against Hawthorn you could make a case that they should have won, but for poor kicking. They had some key personnel out that day but put in a fantastic performance.

Against other teams in Melbourne they are 6 and 1.

Had a very bad stretch where a combination of injuries, schedule and travel crippled them. Been in good form the last couple of weeks.

Working against them is that they have 6 1st 22 players out injured which has stretched their depth. Hawks form has built beautifully and they will benefit from the game at the G not Etihad. I would think this will be a very big game for the Hawks - lose this one and you have a tough trip to WA the week after. Drop both and their premiership aspirations take a body blow.

So Hawks to win Kangas cover the line?

Go to stormsurf and click on the Indian Ocean icon then click the precipitation icon/word,it's in the top right of screen,click and modelling should start.
I looked at the Galle forecast,looks kinda okay for the next 2-3 days or so.
 
I know Richmond were poor last week, but does anyone think they were saving themselves for this game against Collingwood?
Im on collingwood -15pts but I have a feeling Richmond wont just roll over at the MCG in front of their fans

I jumped on Collingwood when they were even money a couple of weeks ago. Seemed like a gift. Since then they have rolled over in the 4th vs Hawthorn and not turned up against GWS.

I'm a bit worried about the game now though because there will be a fair amount of pressure (couple of ass. coaches flicked) and an insipid performance would surely ramp up pressure on Hardwick. However, they simply don't have the cattle to win and certainly without Delidio. Have won 6 games (Carl, Ess x2, Bris, Freo and Syd which looks like an outlier). So have only really beaten really poor teams and Collingwood is currently performing at a pretty good level over their last 6 games.

Line at 172.5 for pies v richmond looks about right on paper. thinking unders though
1. Cox is back and Moore out, Pies score considerable less with Cox in the team
2. Poor defensive performance last week from Richmond, Hardwick may come out defensively
3. Richmond attack is horrible atm

thoughts?

I'm on Collingwood also. Pies are the top tackling team in the comp (+175 for the year) while Richmond are the worst (-192) so if anything I think the Pies pressure is going to be too intense for the Tigers to handle.
