As a cigar smoker I usually put a small amount on humidor, didnt. And he cost me a multi and The quaddie

Holy Snow missed the start and then got out too late ... had it each-way so no harm done.  A good thing beaten though.

I missed the race with the mad rush of getting to the G. Cheers Macca for suggesting the place multi. Still alive.

I also had place so all good. Gallic Chieftain ran 3rd also. So good start to some multiples.

Have a good yell at the Dees for me D77.

Shane Adair is doing the tips today at Morphettville ... JJ is hosting.  Might just take a look today and see how he goes. 

Done a couple of place cards ... that way of betting goes back a long way - before Quaddies and 'Outside' of normal betting.  From memory it was a 4 race card where the place odds were higher and you'd add the odds together instead of multiplying.

Got a good seat?

 

Not IMO Wadda. Front row behind Punt Rd goals bottom level. Kids refuse to sit anywhere else, you know...... they want a Hi-5 from the players after games should we win. This is the only place I can take them where I don’t hear the words “ Dad, I’m bored” :)

No Wadda,  we're not getting JJ's tips at all.  Annoying

I'm tuning into the footy soon enough so it's a distraction we didn't need anyway.  Nearly all my bets surround the Randwick card so it's tune in every half hour or so

And the Demons are just keeping in touch at the G ... need to lift Wadda.  

Oohood got out late but if it had have got out earlier it probably wins.  That's the story so far with a lot of the fancied runners.

Ace High....had it won.....so disappointing     bob of the head.

Official margin... a nose.

Really unlucky - the horse nearly created history ... the good news is that the Demons are getting on top. 

Had the Ace each-way and in a place multi so still alive.

One sporting bet i noticed today was Brisbane line against Port was 54.5 points.....so i jumped on that as an anchor in a footy multi.

Half way through the last 16pts the diff. Brisbane just aint that bad.

Wow Happy Clapper.....bridesmaid for 2 years....great win. Tosen missed the start, but also finished last. Strange horse.

Yep ... Happy Clapper a worthy winner and had to carry weight as well. 

A whole host of horses have disappointed today ... and none of our best-bets saluted either. 

But the Demons have broken the losing streak against North!  Won well too.  Should have won by a lot more but a 37 point win will do.  The monkey is off the back!

Sure is. Was a pretty hard day at the track in the end. Lot of horses screwed up. Ace was unbelievable, cant believe he didnt win.

Got a live multi on the footy.

Demons under 39.5

Brisbane + 56.5

Freo under 39.5

Crows line -20.5

Ess win H2H

28.13/1......so far so good.

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol
