Could only imagine you forgot to put your tips in if you got knocked out last week.

Slim pickings this week
Richmond v WCE
Geelong v Crows or
Collingwood v Sydney

Leaning towards Richmond

I agree with your first line 100%
Richmond & Geelong yes, staying away from Swans/Pies, Melbourne & the Saints should get the job done comfortably too.
Will finalise tomorrow.

Ive settled on Saints, Richmond worry me.
Think the crows are a chance with the weather forecast, sydney could pull one out the hat after being so poor last week, even GC at home have beaten Melbourne recently

Struggling to see how this comp will end with Hawks, NM and WCE all actively trying not to win. Needs a rule like the gauntlet where you can only pick a team once

Absolutely spot on. Gauntlet takes some skill and risk when you pick a Gold Coast etc early to get them out of the way.

There will always be a $1.01 pop this year with three teams that are as bad as ever, they not causing major upsets this season.

90% of the comp were knocked out in the first 4 weeks - there’ll be more upsets…

I backed Collingwood on Sportsbet to win the Flag back in February.

Paying $9.50, I have $25 on it. They are into into half that quote now $4.25

Should the Pies lift the cup, $237.50 return.

Current Cash Out Offer = $49.04.

Think I will sit pat for now.

Hard one this week, im tossing up between Bris over GC or Coll over Carlton.
Very confident Hawks are better than WCE especially in Tassie but im not convinced we want to win

The full Hawthorn tank is on. They should win in Tassie but with do what's needed.

WCE are far more experienced at tanking than we are, should hold them in good stead.
I wonder if covid has spread through our team after Mitchell got it, might be a good excuse to leave a few key players out.
