4/4 also.

Crows game live here in the Country for us at 12.30, Pork match being shown at 3.30, with a bit of luck, they'll be getting thrashed so will watch it if that is the case, if not...love my remote control.

6/6 so far and it looks like being 7/7 with Freo leading by some 50 points late 19 minutes into 3rd.

If only St.Kilda beats Richmond I'll get the perfect 8.

Hope you found something entertaining around the channels.

Tele went off.

I'd say 'tele' might be getting a little bit of a rest again this year

Freo 51 points up with 2 minutes to go in the last quarter. That gives me 7/7 too Stiffy.

I need Richmond to win to get the perfect 8.

What an ordinary pair of teams to be trying to get the perfect score on.

 

[sapaul]

Same as Stiffy...7 and needing St.Kilda.3/3 in the SANFL too this round, they were all predictable though.

 

[DaveW]

I'm on 7. I've never gotten 8/8 before! EVER!

It's annoying that it now hinges on a 50-50 game, I've tipped St Kilda... so that's good news for Richmond fans.

I would have had a perfect SANFL round, except I let bias get the better of me and tipped South

 

[noddy]

I would have have been 7/7 if the Blues had won & 3/3 in the sanfl if the Bays had done the right thing,

 

[Stiffy_18]

Is it too much to ask from St. Kilda to actually rock up to play

 

[PrideofSA]

So far on 25 and if Richmond wins then I'll be on 26....with 7, 5, 7, 7. Not too bad.

They finally did in the last quarter. But they've been most wasteful up forward, and thrown away a match they could have won. (Still a few minutes to go, but I think they're out of time)

Too late if they manage to string a half of the same intensity as 4th quarter they wold have beaten Richmond. A bit like us against the Saints.

7/7 this week. Well done to macca23 who's got 8/8. I should listen to him a bit more.

 

[footychick]

Yah, i got 7/8 this week-I tipped Melbourne over Geelong (i despise the cats)
Well done Macca23

 

[sapaul]

Not tipping St.Kilda again.

Well done Macca(the number 1 Macca on bigfooty )

I'm on 23-8, 3, 5, 7.

6 out 8 this week and congratulations to those that got 8. Lost out on Melbourne and St Kilda. A new golden rule - don't tip the Saints unless they play Freo in Melbourne (which thank god they don't this year). Now can some one please explain how we lost to that rabble in Round 2?

This week, oh the pain the pain:-

Collingwood over Essendon - be close but the Don's (jury still out)
Sydney over Melbourne - only coz its in Sydney
Hawthorn over Richmond - swelled heads will be the Tigers after 3 on the trot
Adelaide over Port - no Francou (and he has won the last 3 BOG)
Kangaroos over Carlton - Emotion of the Roos over their old boss
Brisbane over Doggies - in a canter
Fremantle over West Coast - the Dockers have a more potent forward line than the Coasters
Geelong over Saints - will never tip the Sainters again


PS : If any of you follow the horses (and believe it or not I don't), I do have a small interest (10%) in a nag called "Autoplay" (3 year old filly). Won its first race at Oakbank on Saturday. Was at 17 to 1.

 

[macca23]

Thanks everyone. Absolutely delighted to get the big 8/8 this week when I thought at the start of the week it could be a bit wobbly. Puts me on 27 after 4 rounds (7,6,6,8).

Very hard week this week and there are a few tricky ones as usual.

COLLINGWOOD to beat Essendon (comfortably)
SYDNEY to beat Melbourne (50-50)
RICHMOND to beat Hawthorn (50-50 and this could well change)
ADELAIDE to beat Port Adelaide (50-50 and I've gone with my bias)
KANGAROOS to beat Carlton (reasonably confident)
BRISBANE to beat Bulldogs (confident)
WEST COAST to beat Fremantle (reasonably confident)
ST KILDA to beat Geelong (50-50)

At least 4 games that could go either way and the selections could well change by Friday!!

Congrats kirky. As an owner of horses in harness racing I know the thrill of winning.

Well done!!

 

[Damp Squarie]

6 out of 8 for me; which I was reasonably happy with.
Tipped roos and saints...Doh!

Like I said, Richmond were always going to screw me.

That makes 7, 4, 6, 7 for me (counting the draw as a loss)

 

[napsyd]

5 out of 8 for me. I broke too many of my own golden rules trhis round! Not a bad result, but somehow I'm not real happy.

Onto the next I guess...

 

[sapaul]

This week.

Collingwood
Sydney
Hawthorn
Adelaide
Carlton
Brisbane
Fremantle
Geelong

 

[PrideofSA]

What is everyone's total score counting the draw as a win?

For me it's 26. Just want to see how every one is going?

27 with the draw as a loss - 28 with the draw as a win.

 

[sapaul]

24 with the draw as a win but I don't count that.
