I believe Petracca will debut and that the club already know Garlett hasn't came up. I will be shocked if Petracca does not debut.

So?

Yes they are. In my multis I usually put 8 X $10 multis each week. That allows me to take 3 games each way. The last two weeks I've gotten 9. I called the Lions early on here and they got up. Once you have a form line you should be able to pick at least 6 winners a week. Then take the other 3 games each way. Last week paid $680 for a $10 bet. Minus the $80 outlay = $600 profit.

why not take your 6 best straight out for 80 bucks its the same thing,

Well ok but make sure he does not sneak any Collingwood paraphernalia  into the ground ie socks, jocks, black and white hanky.

With games I consider to be "locks" I tend to load up with larger amounts as the collective odds aren't huge but with a decent outlay the return can be rewarding. 

With regards to the ten dollar multis using this weekend as an example. Returns range anywhere from approximately $360 - $3700 depending on who you bet with. 

The biggest payout requires/required.

crows (Hawks won, had game each way)

swans (lock)

north (lock)

doggies (lock)

power (cats won, had game each way)

dees (no lock but took them outright)

freo (lock) 

saints ( giants - have this game each way)

bombers ( pies - have this game each way)

I actually did 4 games each way this week for the first time. Worst case scenario is one of your "lock games lose) but if they all get up you can't lose. How much you win varies depending on results of each way games.

i don't think you understand the basics of gambling, when you back 2 horses/teams/anything in a 2 horse field you profit is decreased by 15% over any sort of reasonably time (season). just multi your locks for your maximum spend & over the season you will show 15% more profit or 15% less loss.

Your starting to lose me, what I do I understand is that I started with $150 in my account round 2 NAB cup before we played the dogs. 5 weeks later I have taken my initial $150 out and have $5000 in my account, depending on results today/tonight/tomorrow there could be another $400 - $1300 in there.

its your ability to selecting your lock that is creating your profit.

for example this week you spent $160 on your multis if your locks win & giants/pies win I'm guessing you'll collect around $500

however if you just multi your locks for $160 you will collect around $1400

yes some weeks the outsiders of you each way legs will win  giving you a higher profit, but over long term you lose profit

As for "basics of gambling" I have my own rules. One of them is minimising the variables and eliminate the risk. For example I only bet head to head, I never do lines/margins or qtr/half/full time leaders. 

My rule

One Melbourne Cup, 10$,  per person per yr...

Its the bookies full time job, your punt. He will always win. Trust in the Schwarz!

Ok, I think I see the confusion.

If you reread my post earlier on this page I have : 

large money on SWANS/ROOS/DOGS/FREO 4 lock games

to make a profit of $1650

in addition to that I have on 16 X $10 multis, that allows me to take 4 games each way. Betting on all 9 games but having :

2 bets = 1 game each way 

4 bets = 2 games each way

8 bets = 3 games each way

16 bets = 4 games each way

You could have any amount but $10 works for me. Obviously worst case scenario is that one of the games not taken each way loses. Let's say they all win. I then combine all the odds to get a worst case scenario (all favourites get up) to best case scenario (all long shots get up)

This week the worst case scenario is about $400 ( $400 - $160 outlay = $240 profit). Best case now that crows/port both lost is about $1300 ( $1300 - $160 = $1140 profit) For that to happen I need saints/bombers. 

You then have 16 different possibilities ranging between $400 and $3700 depending on results of 

Hawks/crows

Port/cats

saints/giants

pies/bombers

i understand your bets

what do you think would happen if you took all 9 games each way (over long term).

you would lose 15% of your turnover.

if you could make profit by backing 2 horses in a 2 horse race we could retire now

I just checked the latest odds and Richmond are now strong favourites at $1.60 to win c.f Melbourne at $2.40.

The Dees no longer have to struggle with the spectre of being the favourite and having to win.

I regard this as a blessing from above.

We'll win this one now.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
