Collingwood money always skews the betting...
Disagree. Ubet take 150k on average per game (more if u include multis) and it isn't particularly more on Collingwood games. This would mean it is a value bet to get against Collingwood every week and this is not usually the case. IMO

Like I said, you could argue it - SuperBru has the Cats result as an upset, with 29% of tipsters picking the result....they also have 81% of tipsters picking the Weagles tonight, so 19% have picked the Lions. Thus, using that as a guide, the Lions winning would be a bigger upset.

I prefer to simply look at the relative expectation of both sets of supporters in tandem with the industry - you're using the metric of betting to assess it. If you wish to believe that the Cats winning was a bigger upset than the Lions winning, that's cool - I believe differently :)
Port trumped them all anyway!

Is it just my perception or are we talking more about betting now?

Are there are few Neds Bots roaming around Lions BF?

TBH, it'd be no fun if we all hated Port like I do - there's enough hate in the world as it is, so I will concede that it isn't terribly healthy. And I know, come round 3, you'll all be in the trenches with me :)

I'm in Cape Town on a bus heading down south. The download speed at the hotel is so slow that an AFL pass would be a waste so I will watch it on Kayo when I get home.

Will be able to get score on my phone and will be looking up Bigfooty so lots of in depth posts, detailed analysis and certainly no melt downs

Got it :)

(loads up folder named "Lions" with jpegs and gifs of Lions doing lion-things like eating eagles, roaring at poachers and prowling in prides ready to attack)

Is it sad that I'm so excited I could cry. Sooo pumped. Cant hold it back. **** the lid just throw it away. Come on boys.
I think that's a result of getting older Milux, I'm definitely getting more emotional the older I get, life in general not just the Lions.

Maybe it's because I'm moving closer to the finishing line.

This has got a Steamboat v Flair vibe to it. Sure we're and up and coming team hungry for success, but in our way is the ultra successful veteran wearing flamboyant premiership medals screaming "WOOO!" at every chance. To be the man, we're going to have to beat the man.
