fair enough like a psychological pillow for the pain of losing - I would feel too dirty taking the cash on us losing thought!

I reckon once you're on a good thing stick to it hence my Winx example I loved that horse - $1.10 a time easiest 10% ROI in the world better than bank interest - Dees are a similar proposition at the moment can make 20-30% on a certain win pays for after match drinks or whatever

“A psychological pillow for the pain of losing” I like it. 
And it’s certainly not dirty money, since if my TAB balance is substantially replenished by having lost a match, I donate half to Reach coz Jimmy. ❤️

LOL, I imagine someone at TAB looking at my betting history and being like, “pfft, this chump. Does she even know how to odds?”

    Gambling is stupid if you let it dominate you. Personally I put $ on our opponents every week and I’m thrilled to say that I’ve lost so much in the recent past. Pre-2021, not so much. It’s usually only $20 or so (except vs. Essendon where it’s $100 minimum, even if it means going without food and not paying rent for a week). It cushions the blow in the event of a loss (whatever a loss is; been so long I’ve forgotten).

    PS: Capital B after the exclamation mark in your first sentence. Need I slap it into you! 🙄

    Just send me the money 

    your theory is pointless!!

    $100 on Essendrug!!!

    F That….

    Soft opposition that are not up to AFL standard. Could we fall into bad habits? What are demonlanders thoughs?

    Fact of the matter EVERY GAME is a danger game, teams know they need to be switched on against us and of course they all want to knock us off our perch. 

    West Coast away while east on paper (I mean the tigers slaughtered them by 100+ the other week) has the potential for us to get into lazy Hollywood style habits. The Eagles weren’t great against the Lions but did put in a competitive effort. They also have players that while in their twilight, still have the potential to hurt you. 

    The simple answer is if we play our way and our best they won’t get close. If we go in with poor attitudes it could be Adelaide 2021 all over again. Hopefully lessons have been learned from that night.

    A little harsh, no?

    I don’t think it’s pointless, which is handy since it’s MY theory. 😁

    And if $100 on Essendon leaves you nonplussed, get this: a few years ago I put $200 on them to beat us and talked an Essendon mate into putting the same amount on us to win. It was for sh*its n giggles, until he suggested we double it. So we did. And the Dees won. And I don’t regret it for a second. Not a single second.
    Turned out he offered to give me back my outlay. Since I’m a proud person I steadfastly declined his offer for about 10 minutes coz while it’s true that I’m proud, I’m not stoopid.

    This is an excellent tactic of Goodwin about respecting the opposition, gives them nothing to feed off and makes us hard to hate. Honestly I feel like we are the All Blacks of the AFL.

    As someone of NZ heritage who was born in Melbourne in 1965, started following the Dees during the shizen 70’s, before spending the late 70’s in Auckland and latching onto a rugby nation who apparently couldn’t lose (and I follow them still), my barracking life always had a kind of yin-yang balance. Now all I’ve got is YIN!!! [censored] balance, I prefer this.

    Betting against our 8-0 side I can’t believe that! At what point do you decide you’re throwing money down the toilet 

    It's an insurance bet. Let taking an umbrella so it doesn't rain.

    I’ve got on Ben Brown for the Coleman so shouldn’t hurt my chances. Currently on 15, should be leading the goal kicking by round 11

    %. I know this is projecting really far fwd but we have Freo (Perth), Carlton (MCG) and Brisbane (Qld) in 3 of the last 4 weeks. Hopefully % doesn't matter but if it does I want it to be higher than Brisbane and Freo. I want us to finish top 2 and get a home final.

    The next two games will hurt us if we cop injuries. Otherwise I expect we collect the 4 points with minimum fuss and move on

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
