    It’s one of two things Wadda. 

    1. It’s meant to be our lucky day.

    2. Tab knows we have no hope of collecting and  is simply teasing us.

    I’ll take option 1.

    Great start at @Macca. I hope these close finishes aren’t the order of the day. Not sure how many valves I have left.

    Well done again Macca. If anything, the boosted odds have certainly added more excitement to the day.

    Haha, bummer. It’s certainly been an entertaining afternoon nonetheless. Found nothing unfortunately, had a great spot but the winner was way too good.

    Well if we always get 1 of the 3 up we should,  in theory,  get our money back and cover the multi bet if we back each of the 3 to win (using enhanced or booster odds)

    2 winners turns a profit and 3 winners delivers a very good payout.  When BM returns we'll have 4 best-bets going but the same principle applies.

    Yep ... it is a better percentage play just as long as we get 1 winner!

    With the 4 best-bets 1 winner is line ball but 2 winners should produce a profit.  And it's good knowing that we all put a fair bit of thought into our best bet too.  As previously stated,  at this time of the year I'm looking out for what Gator or JJ like.

    Good run Captain. A bit wayward in the straight, almost said hello to the outside rail. Winner had an ideal run.

    The Suns were down by 29 at one stage Wadda. Kept Swans goalless in the second quarter. That would be the upset of the year.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
