AFL Insider is pretty good too Redleg. Bit of analysis of the game and strategies, which is very good.

Won't watch it because that liar Lynch appears. My son in law said after Lynch retired he went up to him to congratulate him on his career and he turned his back on him. He has the right to be rude and lie if he want's to but I don't have to watch him on TV.

    NAB cup squad appears to be falling away. 3 more out today, Morton, Blease and JT. Looks like the rookies will get a go.

    The new TV series called "Luck" may appeal to those who follow horse racing . Not sure when it will hit our shores but it's quite popular in the States .

    I appreciate that some around here frown on political discussion on this thread but with the Gillard/Rudd battle coming up on Monday I think this becomes appropriate in the circumstances:-

    hahaha, very appropriate, Jack

    Might have one of the cooler days in summer on GC today, also wet. May help us a bit. Interested to see if new game style is evident. Coach says it will be.

    Also think Stefan Martin has some real X factor, even though the conditions certainly didn't favour him tonight.

    Le Beau Cheval 3rd at 56 to 1, better run, but he looks limited to me.

    Just won his first at canberra today at 20 to 1. Has improved 2 starts since gelding.

    He just needs some time.

    His agility for a big man leaves him sooooo close to being able to stooge defenders like a Buddy Franklin would, but he is just not quite there yet.

    He nearly dodged Adcock last night ,which is ridiculous given his size . I think he will have a VERY good year .

    Nineteen. But don't let on to the Biffenator. He's a big Sepoy fan. Apparently according to Biffen, Black Caviar has been avoiding Sepoy. If you want to talk racing or BC - there is a Black Caviar thread in Sports. Redleg, you might want to add some input on BC.

    Didn't actually say that HT .Do bookies pay you to tout things this far in the red or are you just a safety officer ? Fact is they wont race each other .

    Biff, refer you to your own posts on " Black Caviar " thread on "Other Sports "

    #14 : Black Caviar is dodging decent opposition "

    #17 : " Sepoy and her [sic] are dodging each other "

    #19 : " Moody places her in fields where Sepoy isn't "

    #24 : " Just a point of fact mate . They are avoiding each other for now "

    BTW , Sepoy [ who is a fine, fine horse ] really carved them up in the Oakleigh Plate yesterday.

    Well beaten by several mollydee. Good research too on the Biffenator.

    He's probably right about them not racing one another. Sepoy will have to step up to face the BC. Oakleigh Plate form suggests there's better opposition anyway after having the sit of the race.

    A considered comment for discussion - by Round 12 we might have 2 wins.

    I thought it was a poor ride for a horse with a lot of weight.

    Apologies guys, I arrived in Brisbane just as the rain hit up there and returned to Melbourne as the storms hit last night, I think it's following me again.

    The fact is that Sepoy is 3 ,already carrying top weight in Group1's .and is yet to peak . He didn't really have a chance to sit ,and the speed came from the back .You go and put all your money on BC then .Your favourite mare is a great sprinter .Tip me something less obvious to win and we'll see .You think Sepoys run was that bad-you know nothing about racing then .

    HT -they still haven't raced each other have they? Fact.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
