Far out! The one week I DONT get on ablett he kicks 2g!!!! He Was paying 5.75 on lads
Even if one goal was with a throw to ablett.
3 would have been crazy odds...

 

[tangolikelama]

Ohhhh yeah

 

[mouncey2franklin]

Also like Tuohy $2.50 AGS, 3/3 from last three matches.

This doesn't make up for Charlie and Rayner letting me down.

Just one more goal from Rayner and it would have been a good day.

Instead I'm down, down down like prices at Coles.

McCluggage missed Rayner right in front, too.

Brisbane deserve to lose. Every time they have bombed it forward they have Charlie and Shitwood outnumbered 2 v 6. How the * do you expect to win? Zorko misses a sitter (among others). They wont be doing anything worthwhile and Danihers 4 games a year wont be the answer

That said i despise geelong, porkins, danger, scott, selwood and Rohan so go Richmond i guess. Lesser of 2 evils slightly

That after the siren goal sinks the point unders. Hope all the lions get Covid. They deserve it

There's the second jinx, Geelong 100% certainty now.

Right again.

These occasional big wins make it all worthwhile, the thrill of those final moments is hard to match, it's quite a rush, and makes the football something to look forward to.

Especially in a bizarre year where you find yourself stranded in a foreign land with nothing to do but drink, gamble, and engage in certain other unwholesome activities.

And that's how we gamble

Drink, gamble and unwholesome activities? You should be selling memberships. Half of Bigfooty punting board would jump on a plane...

Kills the unders and Geel 1-39. Some distraught punters right now (and of course some doing multiple fist pumps).

Landed Charlie first goal scorer and my multi got up, $200 collect softens the blow. Cheers lads.

 

[Robo87]

Cameron AGS, Hawkins 2+ & Selwood 15+ disp $3.88 NEDS

nice one! simple picks are the best sometimes. Tho i think selwood is officially now past it, i won't ever back him for a 'safe' 15+ again.

I'm not sure how it's possible, but it seems like i'm a bit of a contrarian backing Richmond.

They're the better team, far more finals experience, proven in bigger games, have the best superstar, outstanding in the dew / rain, good structure, well coached.

Additionally i'm concerned for Bris and Port having 1 game in 3 weeks. I think for some teams this is a big disadvantage (teams winning week 1 are 4 and 4 in prelims whereas before the change they were 7 and 1). I think some teams come out really flat.

Remember Port have been carried through this season with HGA and aren't a proven finals side. I don't see any advantage to Port in terms of mids, forwards or backs. Edwards and Prestia back in means that dangerous players like Bolton now play forward. I don't give too much credence to the Port win vs Rich because the latter had personnel missing and a 4 day break.

On the flipside Port have HGA, plenty of enthusiasm and coming off a solid win vs Geel.

Think it's madness backing against Rich in a massive game vs Port who haven't played finals since 2014.

As far as rankings go I have Port the 4th best team currently in finals. Odds seem a bit out because you can get both games at +2.5 but Rich are better than Geel and Bris are better than Port imo.

Teams having a first week win are now 4W and 6L in prelims. While Port predictably just lost to a better more composed team, Bris were awful. I think Geel were a better team, but it didn't look like the 1 game in 3 worked for Bris at all.
