I'd be interested. What sort of outlay are we looking at and we are going to decide our bets?
I'd be in for that.

We could organise it, but we'd need only genuinely serious participants.
Oh, and we'd also need someone like DCFC or Rusty Brookes to run it, that way we'd know our money would be safe

Geez, you're brave.
I'd be interested.
Just for the sake of the topic, the one I used to run at my old work was divided into units. You could go in for any number of $5 units per week (the same amount every week) - that way it catered for people who only wanted to put a little bit on and those who wanted to put in $20 or more a week. Then the selection roster was weighted towards those who put more in: If you put in $20 a week, you got four picks for every one pick for the $5 people.
Clear as mud?
Basically we were allowed to bet on anything the TAB or Sportsbet were fielding on, at any time between the Saturday and the next Friday. Most people restricted themselves to the Saturday fields, but if you had a tip for a mid-weeker, you could do it that way.

I guess that will be decided down the track, but i don't see it as a problem.
If i have to get my money to DCFC i'd much prefer to deposit it somewhere, makes it much easier.

Mate you don't want me managing this thing! I'd be the one that would screw up the bet down at the TAB or forget to get it on. DCFC is the man here.
The only other syndicate I've been involved in was an on-off one I participated in when I was working in a bakery. I remember some monstrous quaddie we put down with everything boxed and 5 selections in each leg. The guy organising (another Hawthorn supporter: btw-what's the link between supporting the Hawks and punting, there seems to be a heap of us on this board) convinced everyone we couldn't lose. Of course, in the third leg we missed out and the whole syndicate fell apart because of that one bet.

Couldn't we just open a TAB account? I'm keen DCFC and co, not too sure on how these are run.
May'be if we open a TAB account, make sure balance on X day is $100 (five people) and speak online for tips, then person with TAB account details phone books bets? People with phone account details should be left to a minimum.
This is all a suggestion but I'm keen.Is what I'm saying correct?

I would be in it based in Qld so would have to send my money to someone perhaps we could pay a month in advance suggest $20 per month each person.

I'm interested. Sounds like a bit of fun.
i'm interested, the TAB account sounds like a good idea, either that or we open up an account at a bank, and we can transfer the money for the week or month or whatever, and one person places the bets...or something like that
