The Dockers do have a history of trade blunders, but something tells me that a bloke who can't break into a side sitting 0-8 + a versatile skinny bloke who can't kick and who turns 29 next year + a first and third round draft swap, won't land us the 2nd or 3rd best player in the comp.

Gambling for dummies, rule 1(a) - Never bet on Melbourne

I like their current nicknames. Nathan Jones - Mini-Chief (after Jason Dunstall) Matthew Bate - Mastur

The Kangaroos drew 25000 to a FINAL 18 months ago. We're fickle but we're hardly unique. Carlton's last two home crowds against Freo - 17518 and 16076 Richmond drew 18000 against Freo a couple of years ago Hawthorn drew 11000 against Port 2 years back We're winless, our supporter base is tiny compared to the above 3 clubs, what do you expect?

Is it wrong to bet against your team?

Unfortunately, ND will be ND. Pettard will be emergency for another 6-8 weeks.

Historically, round 1 is chock-full of upsets. Melbourne Vs St Kilda - St Kilda by 15 Kangaroos Vs Collingwood - Kangaroos by 20 Fremantle Vs Port Adelaide - Freo by 10 Brisbane Vs Hawthorn - Brisbane by 30 Sydney Vs West Coast - Sydney by 15 Adelaide Vs Essendon - Adelaide by 40 Western Bulldogs Vs Geelong - Geelong by 10 Carlton Vs Richmond - Richmond by 20

Really?? I can't think of a commissioner with more bad things said about him than Evans. I suppose many will be taking the "nothing nice to say, say nothing at all" approach right now. Condolences to his family

Yes, you're right, it would be safer, but i think i might have some trouble finding an agency offering me odds of 200-1 during gf week to pick the winner. i don't think you quite understand the concept of 'odds'.

I know betting on the brownlow is for mugs, but Travis Johnstone at $201 seems just a tad ridiculous... almost too juicy to ignore. Our leading vote getter for the past two years is 4 times longer odds than Cameron Bruce and longer than Jeff White. For the conservative punter, you can take the shorter odds and get on St Kilda's prized new recruit Michael Gardiner! Anyway, might have a nibble... or maybe i'll just throw my money straight in the bin.
