The premise is simple ladies and gents.

We talk a lot of s**t on this forum and make a lot of big calls.

This thread is for you to lay your nuts down on the line. State what you are willing to bet your BF life on.

Get it right, and perhaps you get to gloat a little. Get it wrong, and bow out graciously never to post on BF again. That's right. Never again.


Now it must be noted that this thread existed in 08, and the following people lost: Ashley12, Shotta, Deenamite, Poidacat, GuzzLG, Cheshire Cat, .

As the more astute of you may have observed, some of this posters have disappeared as promised but others... Punish them as you see fit.

Please note that this year, if your bet does not stipulate a time line, then the end of 2009 is the cut off for your statement.


Place your bets ladies and gents be they serious or light-hearted, but know that your honour is on the line.

Whats the point? Unless its enforced by mods, flogs like shotta will just post whatever they want and then not deliver on their promise.

Go for it hero.

I just threw a quick bet out there to get it started.

Whats the point? Unless its enforced by mods, flogs like shotta will just post whatever they want and then not deliver on their promise.

If you make a bet - stick to it. If not, your name is tarnished forever. You may have noticed many people won't give shotta the time of day because he didn't stick to his guns last year.

Having said that, I asked for this to be enforcable by mods last year, and now I'll do the same. Any chance mods?

Re: On what would you be willing to bet your BigFooty Life ver 2.09

um but brett ratten wasnt sacked after round 7:confused:

This was a 'wording' issue.

The poster stated that Brett Ratten would be sacked after Round 7 2008 - so as long as Ratts made it passed Round 7, technically the poster is right.

Will hawthorn supporters follow through with their bets if they lose? They clearly didn't in PoidaCats thread.
 
Re: On what would you be willing to bet your BigFooty Life ver 2.09

Whats the point? Unless its enforced by mods, flogs like shotta will just post whatever they want and then not deliver on their promise.

shotta is the most derided poster in the Bay. While he may publicly tout his lack of care factor, he secretly cries himself to sleep every night. Even if its not enforced, everyone knows who is a weak flog **** and who isn't and they will be treated as such for ever more.

XIDIGX says: Essendon will not win the spoon this year.


PS - fishguts, you've got some cojones brother. :thumbsu:
 
Re: On what would you be willing to bet your BigFooty Life ver 2.09

by this statement I assume you mean Richmondrehab will finish higher after rnd 22 but Carlton will progress further in the finals - yes?

I bet nobody will honour their bet.

Brilliant post. Very clever. Checkmate.

Will hawthorn supporters follow through with their bets if they lose? They clearly didn't in PoidaCats thread.

I will be perfectly honest and say I don't know what you are talking about. But while we are on the subject, Poida does deserve credit for sticking to his bet and leaving the Bay.

Anyone that states that they will do something and doesn't loses credibility don't they? That's part of what all this is about.
