What I said stands. We are better of facing another interstate team. Yes we get a leg up at subi, and yes we cop it else where.
Made good money backing against WC at the MCG. Check the thread for the round we played Richmond, went WC unders on their score, posted it up.
Certainly sweet knocking Melbourne out of the eight, pathetic team.

Geez, you don't need to be mean. :'(
 
Really scratching my head over the Geelong - Sydney game.

My head says Geelong will be embarrassed from last week and try to come out strong. But Sydney are coming home with a wet sail and look unstoppable. I think best bets will probably be from quarter margins and lines.

Geelong won't win.
When will people understand - Geelong are not a good side. Each year they are flattered by the huge home ground advantage they have. Skilled stadium is extremely skinny and many sides struggle playing there. Who have geelong beaten outside of skilled? anyone?

Sydney will win this by 30-40 points. It will be wet too. You really think that Geelong's midfield will stand a chance against kennedy, hanners, parker etc in wet conditions?
 
Agree about Geelong too. Although, it will be close due to the showers forecast so the score will make them look good in the end. I think starting next season, probably the 2nd half of the year will be the big decline of Geelong. Even more so with the likes of Mackie, Lonergan retiring. They'll struggle to make the 8 next season IMO. Teams such as Melbourne, St Kilda, Essendon getting stronger plus the Dogs will bounce back too.
 
I think if Geelong can convince Gold Coast to let Ablett come back it will be interesting, hard to see a midfield of Danger, Selwood and Ablett missing the 8.

Ablett is pretty much irrelevant now. One of the best ever but the game has nearly passed him by. He's literally never healthy, rare that he travels too. They aren't getting him cheap either, with an ego like his he'll demand way more than he's worth.

He will avg well over a Brownlow vote a game this year. The game hasn't passed him by FFS. He just won't play at less than 100% because he doesn't want to be there and he's a petulant child.

I think WCE with a +26.5 start at $1.50 is a great bet. Should win outright, therefore that's a nice little buffer they have. Cameron and Mummy are big outs.
 
Wouldn't touch Geelong with a ten foot pole. Not betting on either game, if I had to take a bet would just go the shorts on the Swans. Selwood looks cooked and doubt he'll recover. Sydney just have that psychological advantage over us and blokes Like Heeney, Jack, Hanneberry and Kennedy are all class. Then you have Buddy ffs. Swans could and should blow them off the park. Play it safe and take the h2h with the eagles +26.5 start I mentioned.

Swans win.

Cats v Swans
Swans won last 3 by average of 40 pts
2 at Simmons stadium with the Cats having a noted HGA and
1 at MCG PF last year.
In the PF
Danger(39)pos.Sellwood(39)Bartel(26)Enright(26)Duncan(20)
Sellwood will be underdone and no Guthrie.Through injury and lack of depth in there mids Geelong just wont match the sydney mids horsepower.
Sydney SU and - 18.5 seems a "Gimmy"

Agree on Sydney winning the game...they should, however, it's going to be a wet, possibly windy night, with 5-15mm rain predicted (80 per cent chance). I guess the 150.5 total points market reflects this forecast. This should make it closer than expected, giving Geelong a sneaky chance, but I still can't go past Sydney. Also like WC at the line. I think they can win it, so going the safe bet there.

They don't even beat us at Skilled.
 
In defence of anyone considering backing Geelong, with the way B365 and Sportsbet are (I think they're still doing it?) the early payout means your H2H bet is really just a bet on either side getting a 24-point lead. Not the worst bet to have a nibble at the Cats.

But I'll be taking the Swans line all day long.
