Glad we don’t play Brisbane again.

I can’t remember JKH having much of an impact in any of his games to date. Hopefully the boys get around him and involve him as much possible to boost his confidence and make him feel he belongs. This as close to a best 22 for us out there and one of the best teams he will play in for the Dees. All the best young man.

Received a tip. Caulfield R8 No4 Lord Sundowner $19 & $5 Horse was bolting last start and was held up. Jock stopped riding as he had nowhere to go. Let’s hope the same doesn’t occur as he’s drawn barrier 3 and likes to settle near the lead. I’ll pop a few each way, in case of the you know.......“PL syndrome”.

Carlton mate showed me a stat this morning. Marchbank: Metres gained - Minus 13. Is that even possible for a full game?

Well, if we have any Demonlanders living in NZ, they can officially start the Game Day thread.

Masculino is in the same race as my best Wadda. Quinella is settled then. I fiddled around on Tab and you can put Redkirk Warrior in a multi.

France by a two goal margin.

I just pictured Oliver with Norm Smith around his neck.

Best Bet: Caulfield R6 No 3 Mount Kilcoy $2.80 Weir/Allen combo. Terrific in defeat the last two starts, on the quick backup but you can’t question Weir. Down in the weights again and the form is screaming out for a win. Bloodlines indicate the step up in distance is ideal.

I can only guess he was told by Sloane’s sister.

Carlton by 27 tonight. 4 score reviews in which 2 will be incorrect. Charlie Curnow to dominate and kick 7. If you own a rent-a-crowd business, you’ve done well this week.

Far out, 10 metre rule has gone out the window. How was that not 50?

Quick...edit the top line.

Have you switched off yet pd? BT just said “ look at Sparkle”.

Stones and Maguire losing concentration and allowing Mandzukic to slip in behind them to score Croatia’s most famous ever goal. Clinical finish too by the striker. A lot of current and former Spurs players running around out there tonight.

That’s exactly what mate just said to me. It was very hard to ignore a win like that. Like you said Macca, Black Book for Gold Mag. Thanks for the article. Some talk El struggled with the step up to 1200m but he was happy overall with the run. Not a fan of the jock but he admitted the ride was a good one today. They’ll find a suitable race soon we hope. The day ended up a good one in the end, I could no longer ignore Williams, backed his runner in the last. Got upwards of $14 with the boost.?

I’d like to see Kent replace Stretch, more speedy than Stretch but unsure if two games back in the VFL is enough for a recall.

Apologies for the shot, not sure why it’s come up like that. Couldn’t resist, Williams is a legend!

G’day Macca. Gold Mag was very impressive. That was some turn of foot. El ran a good race, did a bit of work early and was a little under pressure upon straightening but fought well to the line. I didn’t get the full rundown as connections were quick to leave after the race. Will have some more when I speak to mate later on. El was quite agitated an hour before the race win the traffic surrounding his stall. They had to move him to a quiet location, maybe that had a part to play. Not the result they wanted but another race will pop up soon. I’ve taken a couple of pics but I’m having trouble uploading them for some reason.

Saints are slashing ticket prices to attract AFL fanatics for Friday night’s blockbuster during a sale period commencing tomorrow morning. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Adult tickets down to $13 from $25 and if you prefer level 2 behind the goals you’ll be $45 out of pocket instead of $75. * Please note: I didn’t make this up.

I want him to win it for the acceptance speech alone.

The Saints have another 2 Friday night games after this one.

‘ Outback Warrior’ & ‘Gold Mag’ were impressive in their debuts and won by decent margins Macca. Both show ability, but like you said there’s a number of lightly raced horses and sometimes the jump from maiden grade to a BM64 isn’t always plain sailing. This really is a good race for betting especially the exotics. Spoke to mate yesterday and they are 95% certain they will run tomorrow. Horse is also nominated for Sale on Thursday but with the track rated a Heavy8 down there Sandown is a better option. I will head down to the track tomorrow, it’s been a while since I had a ticket printed from an old style bookie. Looking forward to it.

I agree with Cornes. We are so lucky to have him. MAX GAWN has been the best and most influential player in the competition this season and the Melbourne ruckman definitely deserved his spot in my round 16 Team of the Week. I think he has a really good chance to win the Brownlow Medal.
