THORNTON rd 22???? AFL FINALS WEEK 1

[Punk Rooster]

I'm looking at a Melb/Crows double to start with

[mighty_tiger_79]

interesting to note that 2 punters allegedly walked into the aud this arvo one had a $1000 on south melbourne the other punter $1000 Glenelg.

apparently THORNTONS mail-order was joking that a worker for STEAL gets fit by running across the room to lay off bets with them.

[Punk Rooster]

I've gone-
Melb/Adel win 5 units @ $4.09
Melb/Adel 1-39 2 Units @ $7
Melb/Adel/West Adel win 2 units @ $25
Melb/Adel/West Adel 1-39 1 unit @ $45
Melb (1-39)/Adel (1-39)/West Adel +28.5 1 unit @ $14

[Dutchy]

Alright not many weeks left to get this thing on the right side of the ledger!!!! (YTD -$254-50)

Line +24.5 ST KILDA
Line +24.5 FREMANTLE
Line +24.5 SYDNEY
Line +24.5 WESTERN BULLDOGS

$50 on at $3.71 = $185.50


Others this weekend

Saints 1-39
Freo win
Sydney win and +13.5 (very keen on this one) *
Bullies win
WWT at the points

*IN fact Im going to back Sydney to win the flag tonight at $6-00 - massive overs because if they win tomorrow night I reckon they will almost be favourites around $2-20 with a Home Prelim - should they lose tomorrow night they have a home final next week against winner Coll/WB who they would beat and make the Prelim against either Freo or Adelaide which I would still be confident about

i've done central -38.5,north -27.5,wwt -46.5 in a multi 1050/150

[mal]

I officially took the WB at $2-70 AND ML $2-20 for an interest.
WC + AC games will wait for the weather reports on the jump.

If the $2-20 was value ML imagine when I got my december 25 odds $2-40 at 3/4 time
Aints had 6 players injured at 3/4 time
Aints had played in the gabba heat last week.
VERY DUMB BOOKIES INDEED

The $2-70 WB is next on the agenda.

nice work Punk - youve had a good day! fingers crossed for Westies

Ive had a disaster with my Multi going down with Biglands kicking the last goal for the crows and Freo capitulating

I need Sydney to get up tonight or at least cover the 13 points to get something out of the day - hoping they win as I backed them for the flag at $6-00 last night.

[Punk Rooster]

Inevitably, the first week of the finals will throw up a surprise result, if not more. Working around that principle: Melb/Adel/Syd at $10.80 appeals. St Kil will still have queries over them until they win a final this year, Adelaide look a little better than Freo the last time they met; however, Dockers more than up to this, no more than a goal margin in last 3 WC/SYD encounters. See how we go, folks!

Well done Perce!
Did we get on?

[Dutchy]

just looking at the form for todays game...interesting reading

Last 10 # Year Rd Team Score Versus Score Gnd Result Marg
1 2006 9 Collingwood 21.13 (139) vs W Bulldogs 16.9 (105) MCG
2 2005 22 Collingwood 14.16 (100) vs W Bulldogs 21.15 (141) TD
3 2005 1 Collingwood 11.14 (80) vs W Bulldogs 16.16 (112) MCG

Bullies have won the last 2 of 3 games between the two, Collingwood getting up earlier in the year however still conceeded over 100 points to the Bullies with Tarrant, Rocca and Davis kicking 12 of their 21 goals - can they do this today?

all games high scoring (fine in melb today), if high scoring I suggest this will help the doggies, in summary I think this could be a win to the dogs or a big win to the woods as when the bullies lose to the woods they lose big.

my bets -

Bullies to win at $2-80
saver to cover outlay of above bet Collingwood over 40

[mighty_tiger_79]

well my footy bets for the day are

eagles/centrals at the points

western bullies win/eagles pts/centrals pts

[mighty_tiger_79]

i tried to get on the bulldogs kicking the first goal in the 4th quarter and they were $3.70 goal and $3.80 point.

they still had collingwood favourite to score first, which i think was a little bemusing

[mighty_tiger_79]

well my footy bets for the day are

eagles/centrals at the points

western bullies win/eagles pts/centrals pts

well it ended up being a good day but there was plenty of pain with the points bet for the eagles, i got -52.5 and they got to 54 in front at the 26 minute mark of the last quarter, but its a collect and a profit, thats all that matters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BAYMAN - the FOOTY GURU has once again given us MONEY for JAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! with his footy bet.

[mal]

I officially took the WB at $2-70 AND ML $2-20 for an interest.
WC + AC games will wait for the weather reports on the jump.

18 bets 17 winners on my declared footy bets this year.
Look at those 2 winners odds ca ching ca ching ca ching

The AFL bookies did a good job this week the 4 favourites got beaten.

[mighty_tiger_79]

MAL you are the GURU at finding the one sure thing per round and a strike rate of 17 from 18 is sensational

BAYMAN is the multiple GURU but he did cheat towards the end of the year by getting a GIFT every week when the team playing STURT was an automatic guarantee for the points!!!!!!!!

[Punk Rooster]

WWT were in to $1.03 today- must clearly be the shortest price bet about a side this year (ever?)
