Yep, looks like i interpreted those scores wrong and they were always playing for a draw. Read a few match reviews now.

Yes well thats pretty fanatical, and i will certainly give that to you. Well done and what a great supporter you are. I was lucky enough to go to the footy once with Gideon Haigh who i consider one of the finest ever. Very nice fellow. Hes also a demons supporter you might like to know. I grew up going to the G watching Lillee and Thompson as i guess you did. I will still never ever forget that. Amazing times.

28 balls left....will they survive? I have no coverage here.

Yeah I've seen them all ... Thommo was superhuman live Wadda.  I couldn't fathom how anyone could ever bowl that quick.  Lillee was great.  I was hooked earlier though.

Win,  lose or draw this has been a fantastic Test match ... by the way,  I don''t care much for ODI's or T20's but I acknowledge the popularity of those versions of the sport. 

The Aussies will have another great era soon enough but right now,  we're a long way away from having an A grade batting line-up.  The bowling is more than decent when they're all available.

6 balls left with 2 wickets in hand.  Tense!

We held on @Wadda We Sing  ... shame about your bet!!  ?

This draw is better than a number of wins I've witnessed.  A tremendous fighting performance and that's a great way to win back the support from the cricket fans.

Well stuff the bet, thats a fantastic result and a great hang on, something theyve struggled to do in recent times. To be honest thats what i always worry about, is the game and the losing of the fans. I think its struggled a bit i recent years and im not really sure why?

Dont think it going to 7 will help either, but we will see.

Most sports fans are the same - win and they're all-in. 

Lose and we often see the hate & anger.  And the venting.

However,  we have been incredibly well rewarded with the Test side over the years in terms of absolute success so I can easily ride out the tough times.  The Test side has been Hawthorn-like in actuality.  We've been spoilt.

 

Best Bets.

Looking good. I keep forgetting Friday morning here is Friday night there.......

Just doing mine now......Just noting the betting for the 2nd test Aust at 3.00 is very tempting, they will be a good show if they coud win the toss i think.....give me 30mins

You did well going 'local' last week Wadda and Germany have struggled of late - however,  the Netherlands looked way overs to a point that it kinda put me off. 

So I ended up settling on Belgium & Spain.  There are a number of 'Nordic' countries in action this weekend but DZ has already nominated Norway.

Local is good Macca. Might steer clear of the Denmark league this week tho.......

I cant go past Hartnell for a place in the Toorak.

I forgot you were a Packers fan Wadda ... we need a win so let's hope Rodgers can have a day-out.  Lambeau helps a lot and the team will be smarting from recent performances.

Hartnell I like too ... was ultra-impressive in the Epsom Hcp and I marked it at or near the top in the Toorak Hcp.  Might do the double hey?

Well i figured i let you guys do the soccer and id have a scout around for some other sports to mix it up a bit........I just cant have Hartnell for a win but as Bruce would say.....Geeeeee... that was close..

I am really enjoying these Nations League games ... the big match-ups are a great departure from the often lop-sided fixtures that can happen with 'Friendlies'

As time goes on,  the countries will take the games very seriously as a number of Countries already are.

Yes....sounds good. I was not aware of the competition, as i thought UEFA was just for clubs.

Good start here fellas.

The Belgium game ignited in the last half hour in terms of goals, well done Macca. Lucky you picked Belgium and posted before I could. I was going to make them my pick with a 2+ winning margin.

Well, the Greeks are all too familiar with grinding out a result, 1-0 was never going to fail was it!

I put on a pick4 with the first 4 picks that were posted and a pick6 when the last 2 tips came in ... so just need Norway to get up for the early collect. 

Not sure I've ever cheered for Norway before though DZ - another first!

Wadda did well with the Hartnell pick - classy horse.

Ha Ha, Norway was a bit of a rushed pick sorry Macca, come to think of it I’m unsure if I have cheered them on previously myself. 

Good luck by the way, I only placed a six leg multi.

Actually I got that wrong ... I need Spain to win in that 4pick as well. 

Just had a look at the cash-out offer and realised I've only got 2 of the 4 legs up ... and Spain don't play England until Tuesday so the bets are a bit of a slow-burn hey DZ. 

Anyway,  if our bets are all still alive by Tuesday we'll be barracking against England - and then later on barracking for the Packers.  That's gotta be tough for a Bears fan ?

Ha Ha, yes I’m not a fan of the Packers Macca but I do believe they have the 49ers covered this week. Do you think Packerland have a cheese board on their forum??

Neds aren’t offering a cash out for me. They only have a cash out on limited markets, they never offer a cash out when the total goals is involved in a multi. 

To change the subject quickly, Aus V NZ in the Rugby League is producing a classic currently, I much prefer the Union clashes between the two but I’m glued to this one.

Thanks for that DZ ... did not realise it was on.  Tuned in now.

I've hopped on to Sha Tin tonight and am following Zac Purton by putting his mounts in a few multiple trifecta's.  So far,  so good!

Jeez, Kiwis are piling the tries on at the moment. 3 tries in 15 minutes.

I didn’t realise Sha Tin was on tonight. Well done, good luck for the rest of the meet. When I see greyhounds at The Gardens racing around that’s my cue to flip the channel.
