12 legs! 

Did you win enough to purchase the MFC Gorg?

We need someone of good standing to get in there and clean the joint out.  Drain the swamp or whatever!

Not sure I fit the category as “good standing” ha ha

I had a couple of SGM's on for the Port vs North game too and both fell over by one leg!

Higgins +20 touches, ended on 19 and Duursma +15 touches, ended on 14.

I swear my SGM's are cursed, I'm the master of falling over by one leg!!

Yeah I needed Houston and Amon to have a good second Half, Houston got his 15th late in the last and 4 that I had for 15 ended on 15 or 16. 
I missed one earlier this year, 13 legs, last leg was Hill for 15, 12 at 3/4 time vs the crows and got 0 in the last. Killed me.

Always happy to read about a tip.

Just like it. ?

Sheesh 


Sunshine Coast Race 2 Number 1 ( in 30 mins) Maybach was previously trained by Waterhouse and best mate had a share in it up in Sydney. Sold it up North and haven’t been following it since it went up there, just noticed it was running. Not sure anyone would want to take the short odds though. It’s one tough horse and can stay all day.

Looked like it couldn’t get a clear run behind them JV.

Italian GP qualifying is also on right now if that's your scene.

I've got a few quid on Aussie Dan to make it through to Q3.

I will have a look at Monza tonight Rollin, i see Dan is 7th on the grid. He was storming home last week eating up about 12 seconds in 3 laps, but the commentators seemed to miss it? Not sure why he didnt do that earlier, my only guess is tyre wear......

 

Nice little get there in race 2! Was cursing it at the 200m, got home nicely

I was on Miss Guggenheim as well JV.  Well done again for the tip ...  Damien Oliver is the one.  Boots 'em home

Nice way to start the day!

(I might add that I picked up 3 decent collects at Haydock last night so I'm on a roll this weekend)

Haven't got any standouts at Sha Tin today other than to recommend that it's best to look for a bit of value. 

First race meeting back after 2 months so the formline is scratchy.  Maybe a medium wide quaddie but don't forget to include the Purton & Moreira mounts.

Your multis are amazing Gorgo....do you give classes? :)

I like to take a few horses into a few Afl/Nrl games over a couple of days usually, so theyre slow burners but do ok sometimes. I find about 6 legs is the max for me. Had some good returns, but not consistent enough.

Ha ha, they are very hot or miss, mainly miss. NFL time I usually look at one multi of 8-10 games and then one of all games. Much harder.

Ollie couldn't get Cetshwayo out in the 4th race at Geelong ... ended up starting favourite too so was a moral beaten.

But you win some you lose some.  We race tight in Oz so the gaps often just don't appear

That's racing.

Friends horse is running tomorrow in Geelong, race 5 Gigantic Effort, paying $10, no idea how it will go, was held up last race and pipped at the post, think this is a stronger race tho.

Had every chance this time Gorg.  As you said,  a stronger field. 

Such a good jockey is Oliver ... didn't ride a winner yesterday but making up for it today.

3 winners already today after getting Carrie over the line in the 6th race.  Got it in a couple of multi's.

Oh so its not just me then....thats good.. :)

Feel free to post up any good multis. I love them.

We started another thread called Monkey Business a while back, to chat about punting on all other sports apart from racing. But its just as easy to post stuff here i guess?

No. 17 - I'll be gone ruined things for me. 

Not a bad meeting down the highway today.

There's always one!  I've gone away from the exotics a bit for that reason RF. 

Same principle applies to the bigger multi's.  2 legs does me these days with the occasional 3 or 4 leg multi. 

Big odds at 200-1 was I'll Be Gone ... just got pipped too.  You often wonder how a horse can be that much of a long shot.  It's form wasn't all that bad (all things considered)

No no no Wadda! ?

This is a thread for the thoroughbreds

The last thing we need are people complaining about missing out on their sporting multi's by one leg.

Now and again is ok as there is always some natural crossover but we don't want to turn the thread into a pure gambling thread.

The Monkey Business thread exists for a reason.

I should have passed on my Sha Tin tips ... 2 winners and a double already. 

But you know what,  I pass them on and they then lose.  That's how it works. 

Think I'll stick to the one Saturday tip and maybe one other on another day.

Boy was that some ride by Moreira in race 9!

 

Maybe obvious here but the wraps on the thing that won the last at GEELONG today are huge.

It was texted to anyone that ever punted  before the Maiden win at Sale and got smashed into evens.

Won today at 1.45-1 like a Champion in the making.

You should never say anything could be the next Winx but I think it could be the next Winx.

BAROCHA.

Did it with ease.

Apparently it was meant to be called Barocca but someone misspelt the name on application.

But Barocca never worked anyway ... another great con job of the 20th century.  Hair of the dog or a greasy hamburger did the trick.

Will watch Barocha with interest though.  Big call Biff but you never know.

  • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

  • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.

  • NON-MFC: Round 15

    As the Demons head into their Bye Round, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches being played. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons if we can manage to turn our season around? Follow all the non-Melbourne games here and join the conversation as the ladder continues to take shape.
