Hello DrD. I can only assume you have not seen this or the other posts directing you to it. Other wise your avatar would be changed already. So once again here is the your new avatar - i look forward to seeing it next to your name: So paging Dr D here is your new avatar (note; please ensure if needing to crop the picture below you get Mark's whole face):

Hello Dr. Please see my last post in this thread.

Hello Dr. Please see my last post in this thread.

Is that a skin condition?

Or alternatively recontact them for another 3 years as the MCC has recently done (despite a long history of this very issue occurring)

Wasn't sure where to put this but i 'd thought the changes for the cats game was as good a place as any, given it involves a change and finals. A change of avatar due to a losing bet on us making finals. Dr D. I gave your new avatar much thought and landed on this as i think there are some parallels with your good self. He was very negative, struggled communicating a positive message (that pre match 'pep talk'- uggh), did not think we would make finals (well, ensured we couldn't), his contribution to the club is questionable, he had his detractors and it would be fair to say was not universally loved Yet still it can't be argued he had a connection to the club and some interest in it. So paging Dr D here is your new avatar (note; please ensure if needing to crop the picture below you get Mark's whole face):

Beggars belief. And apparently they have just had their contract with the MCG extended. Just checked their website. Not a single word of apology. This is what is written (which is not on their landing page - you have to click through to the game to see it): Today's on sale is on hold. More Info to come shortly. Thank you for your patience.

Two completely ridiculous threads on DL for the last couple of months. This is one.

I think i've found dr d's avatar. Where is he by the way.....

The Harmes Explosion (T.H.E) Good name for a band.

Hibberd is big in and i like him coming in as third man (except when he hits down Cogniglio's throat!). I like Maxy pushing forard also but he has been damaging dropping back into the hole and so a bit of both for mine

Yep, for sure.

Jetta had to make the squad of 40

I was close to choosing avilus too. But it was too short. Same with grunt. I was close to choosing paret as best but even though i backed it hesitated. Class will out. In hinsight best was theanswermyfriend. Backed ir but really was too short

Sorry fellas on best bet. Wrong choice. Obviously. Cant use my home computer atm as renovating office. So trying to do stuff on phone. Got track bias right. Summer sham wrong. Note to self best bets should always be good horses. Actually had a fantastic day, with 7 winners. Three at mv.

Sorry summer sham is race 5 no 4 at mv. Currently 3.10 on fixed odds

Whoa what a trecherous day. Struggling to find a best bet. Rosehill super tricky with 3vyear olds coming back and soft with rain to come. Playing the valley as leaders track. Best bet a quirky one. Summer sham a place. Will get out in front and be very hard to get past.

Tell your hubby this sort of rubbish might have been acceptable when we last won a flag. But not in 2018. Even if we play the first final in Melbourne you should book a beaut room at the Pullman (the old Hilton), have a slap up meal at some flash restaurant (but not with him - dees fans only) and then before the game a big buffet breakfast before strolling to your premium seat ta the g to watch us smash the Cats. Get ahead of the game and book a room for the following week and hope we play the hawks and make sure he knows he has to look after the kids (because you are more organised).

...quite pleased

Agree largely - except for him being near our best field kick. I reckon he is actually pretty average as filed. kick. When i listed the players who i think are above average kicks (only 12 in total) he was not one of them. Tries too many cute stabby kicks. Hogan is a gun and will be scary over the next few years as he gets stronger. Hawkins is a good comparison i reckon

Only your scarf?

My best for tomorrow, on what is a great day is Le Romain first up. Deserves a win and dropping back from group 1 class i ti think will get it done. Big weight but huge class edge over the second favourite Siege of Quebec, is unders in my humble.

Have done my form for Caulfield, Randwick and the group race at Morphetville. Really terrific days racing. Quietly confident. Will post my best tomorrow morning when i see how the tracks and odds come up. have posted my best footy bets here

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 chance of finals but Tigers are a 6 goal better side and i would have that line at 30 points. Great value. I hasten to add my betting partner has Bombers as one of his best so i won't be betting in this game (unless i can convince him to go unders on TMP of 166.5 - i think it will be scrappy, low scoring game) GWS plus 4.5 Comment: GWS will win this game by 4 goals plus so a line of 4.5 is terrific value

No problemo. I quite like the early race each season as first and second up form is on the whole a pretty reliable indicator. Some just come back better than others i 'weight' first and second up form quite high in my form analysis. That said it is of course not exact and i often get bloused by horses that have rubbish first up form and the trainer has changed something or it runs out of its skin. The other thing about the early races is that some good horses peak early in their prep and fall away. And so you can get ok odds and then avoid the losses at shorter odds. One horse that comes to mind is Black Heart Bart
