The great moralisers of Demonland are out in force I see.

 

As Punter To Punter (R.I.P.) often told us, "We're not encouraging you to gamble.  We're encouraging you Tibet".

I'm betting (see what I did there) you've posted that Hamish clip in the wrong thread, @Little Goffy!

Maybe it is in the wrong location, but if people don't like it they can just not look at it.

Haha what do you mean you can’t avoid it?! Just don’t click on it 🤣

You didn't read what I said.

I go to the next topic by clicking "next unread topic"

I have always done this, I have no idea what the topic is until it opens.

So I can't avoid it.

Gambling is not a football topic.

By the header I just assumed in the interests of transparency the AFL had changed their name to AFL Betting.

I would like to see regulations involving 1 betting ad per commercial break during games. Cranking up the price for advertising which those companies can have a bidding war over

Crazy odds on GWS today

Got $2.90 on them with Hogan, Stringer and Briggs back in

Not sure they will hold on but shows how much everyone thinks the Hawks are unbeatable

...but, I guess that's just me.

Betting against Melbourne is the only way i can cope with watching us play. I'm basically paying for a win and if they lose, which is often they pay me for the displeasure.

The Lisa Mona?

I reckon North will get the line in today’s game, +39.5. They’ve play well v Dogs and then they tore us up.

In the voice of Dave O’Neil: gamble responsibility.

I love to have a bet with friends, my family has owned and trained horses and I only mention this to say I’m not a wowser.

But seriously sports betting on phones has to stop, it cannot be that easy to get high. It’s like your phone is dispensing fentanyl.

Felt strong enough to post about it, John Oliver can be a preachy git, but he’s not wrong here, is worth a watch, and the harm is real, let’s push to limit the damage.

Oh and to be clear I don’t mind people talking about their bets, in the same way I favour legalization, but with limits and controls.

There are a lot of things on phones which needs to end, including betting and gaming.

If only someone could end Tik Tok as well.

Sportsbet

Langford RS / $7

Melb top 8 / $15

Multi the above into a power play for $121

Staked $2 on each

I got on us at the start of CY2021 to win it all at $26 and tracc Norm Smith. That was juicy.

I would like to see an end to a great many things

The east coast gas cartel

Capital gains tax discount - back to indexation please

Outsized population growth

Crazy gambling ad volumes

Idiotic driving on roads especially around cyclists

Excess taxation on labour instead of economic rents

More coal and gas mines

Collingwood winning any more grand finals, ever

The list goes on

But not gambling itself

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
