dont mind the occassional punt. put $100 on swan to win the brownlow into saints and cats to make the big one for a return of $600. also $100 on the cats to win the lot at $3.75 . hopefully a nice little pay day. did anyone else get amongst the action?

Gambling is a tax for the stupid.

But I have been known to get amongst it on the odd occasion...

Just shows - you are a very strange man- double dutch at times.Does this mean you are part stupid.?

Ok, for people of the thicker persuasion amongst us, I was poking a bit of fun at myself.

Everybody got that? Its a hard concept, I know.

I'm smart enough to know I'm incredibly stupid at times.

(by everybody, I mean you John. Moving on!)

Love to have a few punts esp multis.....won 2500 once for 10 bucks on 6 games where each team had to win by less than 39.5pts (ie under 40pts)....over the course of the weekend the first five teams had got up...(amazingly)...the sixth and final game was mel v coll a QB few years back....the sixth leg of the bet was either side to win under 15.5pts....The siren had sounded and the dees had won by 13 or 14pts but ROBBO had taken a last minute screamer and was shooting for goal near the boundry after the siren.....you can imagine...so wrapt to win the game (esp against the pies).... my mates were most bemused at me suddenly screaming at the tele.... No No!!....He missed.

Agree about TMR. Just checked TAB sportsbet odds for MFC players... and they list Frawley, Green, Sylvia, Moloney and Scully as favourites and Any Other Player at $8.50. This is very tempting because you would think that Jamar will collect plenty of votes and Davey/Bruce/Junior have all had reasonable form and polled well in the past from memory.

During pre-season I made a bet with a bomber mate that Jurrah would kick more goals than Gumbleton... that weekend LJ did his shoulder. I was probably the only MFC supporter with a grin on his face after round 22 against North when he bagged 5. Also, put $2 on Sylvia for the brownlow at 500-1... the next week guess who had his jaw broken?

Now wondering if I should apply for a job at the Crown as a 'cooler' or if Sylvia will now make a charge in the final rounds to steal Chaz.

You and me both.....

I did the same thing, but also put a fiver on Junior at 1000-1, the week before he did his hammie.

Glad to know I'm not the team's only bad luck charm.....

Why didn't I follow my gut and take the $8.50 for 'any other player' instead of Sylvia? Davey finished equal 1st on 10 votes with Sylvia but those greedy pr!cks at the TAB only paid out half. Green got absolutely no love from the umpires yet again.

If we look like making finals next year with a few more wins on the board Davey could be a smokey

THE TAB ARE DIRTY [censored]!

not only do they pay out half on one bet , i had a 10 leg multi with jack riewolt to have most votes as one of my legs

i put $100 on it at a return of $2500 i get 1250 back how is that fair when i have 9 legs still correct.

i am better of if without that leg in the damn bet! he was only $1.80 and now all my other 9 legs suffer...

You should read the fine print regarding the rules of payouts before placing the bets.

"IF" we look like making the finals.How pedestrian of you.

If we look like winning the flag,I may have a glance.Otherwise I'll be PUNTING as usual.

Oh dear,drop the "WE" please

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
