Oh what.....Federer lost!!

Ha Ha, I pictured your reaction and it made me laugh Wadda. I posted the bet knowing the result. 

Reminds me of a Crown Casino punter that placed 30 large on the Crows about 10 years ago at 3 quarter time when they were up by 30 points in one match. $1.03 and yep....they got rolled.

For sure, always used to love watching the All Blacks play. One of my favourite teams in world sport really.  Definitely up for NFL tips but willing to give anything a go as well

Two stand out bets for mine in the AFL Tigers plus 14.5 Comment: I think the 14.5 line for the tigers is too short. I know tigers are resting players and Bombers are playing for their c

Oh you bast@#do....you knew the result! To honest i couldnt figure out why you posted it?........i thought ok, yes, there are mad punters out there.....and.....

I once went to the races with a person who had done very well financially in life in the advertising world. Hes had many horses over the years but despite his money, only ever had a few good ones. Well he put a bet of 50K on his own horse on the nose that day and it got rolled, and not by a real lot and the odds were around 4.00. He just laughed it off....

Just found out that John Millman is an Aussie ... I'm not up with tennis like I used to be.  Good on him anyway and he's now into the last 8 in a Grand Slam tournament.

John Millman produces the biggest win of his tennis career

We only missed on the Collingwood game (by 1 lousy point) so we've done quite well this weekend DZ.   Novak is still to play of course but who would bet against him?

Might re-load with some more Nations cup soccer.

Nice mate...it’s certainly been a long weekend, was about to quote you on the last selection by saying the Cowboys didn’t make the NRL finals. ?‍♂️ 

Who else needs some sleep?

I was late with my tips as well DZ ... makes putting together a multi a tad difficult!

I propose that we try and get our tips in before lunchtime Saturday or better still,  on the Friday night as previously mooted. 

And the games involved should be from Saturday arvo onwards  through to the Monday morning games so as to create a window where we can collate the tips and add-on or reshuffle to suit.  Friday night/Saturday morning games just doesn't allow enough time.

Just a thought because the idea is quite sound.  There's plenty of options from mid-Saturday arvo onwards including the Demons game next week - and the game after of course! ?

Sorry about that Macca, it was a bit hectic since Friday night. Had a mate ringing me all day yesterday trying to get flights to the West. I will have my selections in by Friday from now on. This week the best bets will be coming in from Perth?. 

I placed a multi last night and it included your Arsenal leg. Got 3 and missed one leg by a goal. Score finished 2-0?, would have been a nice collect.

My selections were for the tip, that’s what you get for rushing sometimes. 

Oh and the Packers last week....I watched the first 2 and a bit quarters before heading into work. We were 20-0 up on you and when I got to work it was 24-23. Couldn’t believe it.

No need to apologise DZ as I was late with my tips as well ... just reckon we need a cut-off point as time goes on much like the racing tips .  We need to be able to use the tips from others so it's not necessarily about our own thoughts. 

I'm probably going to start looking from Thursday onwards with a view to picking 2 tips that involves events to be played from Sat arvo onwards.  It might mean passing up a Friday night event but for the benefit of others,  it suits better.  Wadda might be absent for a while too with the overseas trip. 

As for the Packers/Bears game,  I gave my thoughts here on that outcome.

My best footy bet is the tigers to make their 14.5 line. They will win by six goals plus as piers will run out of juice.

Agreed BM ... the line seems too low and it's easy to envisage Richmond swamping the Pies in the 2nd half with their superior game plan and the extra week's rest to enact that game plan.

The 40+ margin is tempting @ $3.75 but the safer line option virtually doubles your outlay.

 

Edit:  er ... how about a re-take!  Pies all over them up until quarter time.  And now lead by 44 at half time.

Sunday @02:30 Brighton v Tottenham.

Tottenham Win $1.75

Sunday @22.30 West Ham v Chelsea 

Chelsea Win/Over 2.5 goals match total $2.15

Ha ha ... I like the Tottenham call DZ but I can't bet against my Hammers no matter how bad we're traveling!  I've never bet against the Demons or Packers either. 

I fancy the Spurs to score a few too ... they'll be smarting from their CL defeat same for PSG which is one of my tips (see above)

Have you got anything in the Championship that I can add-on?

Lol, that’s right, you’re a Hammers man. Sorry mate. 

I do like West Brom at home to Millwall in the Championship @$1.75. 00:00 Sunday

    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

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int

    The Dees played insipid, error riddled & uninspiring footy all night and in a lightning delayed match they eventually succumbed to Collingwood by 46 points at the MCG in the final game of the year. Thank God this season is finally over. Bring on 2025.
