I think the Swans have been grounded Anita. Technical problems with their autothrottle systems, mibbe?! ;-)

Just ignore me..I'm in a silly billy mood tonight! :-D

Brisbane Lions
N Melbourne
GWS
West Coast
Collingwood

[Val]

My tips:

I'm following the crowd and going with what looks obvious (rarely is). I'm even going against the sacked coach curse - Carlton sacked their coach mid-week so Murphy's law says they should win. You read it here first.

Cats x 7
Lions
Roos

Eagles

[Val]

Thank you Suzy for your great work in keeping all the troops up-to-date with their tipping. I do appreciate it.

Here's hoping we have a cracker of a game tonight. Two top teams who nearly always play entertaining footy. I have been really into the cricket this week. The starting time equates to 7.30pm here so tailor-made for evening viewing. We never see the end though. it's straight on to the net first thing in the morning to see how the game finished up. Very surprised by last night's result. Went to bed about 2.00am with the Windies still having 6 wickets in hand. Thought they'd be a shoe-in!

[suzysunshine7]

Ohhh bless you, Val ... x ;o>

It's because I like to put my Punt in as late as possible (so that I can punt on all of the underdogs ;o>) that I tend to notice if anyone hasn't already done so when the first deadline is only a couple of hours away.

I always have far too much spare time on my Hands compared to everyone else on here and I hate the thought of anyone missing out because they were so busy that it had managed to skip their Mind. I like getting to see everyone on here all joining in together ;o>

[Val]

It'll be a close one they said. Can't split them they said. Two Premiership favourites they said. Well, stuff them!

Tonight's result:

Richmond Tigers (Philip) v Geelong Cats (available)
2.1.13 (Q1) 0.2.2
2.4.16 (Q2) 7.4.46
3.6.24 (Q3) 15.8.98
5.7.37 (Q4) 16.8.104

A whopping 67 point difference and the Tigers were lucky it wasn't more! Lez wins $6.00 for Dementia Australia as her tip of a 43 point margin was the closest.

[suzysunshine7]

YAYYY!!! - Congratulations Lez Lee! ... x ;o>

[theDuke]

And she didn't even post her tips! Very well done indeed! :)

I hope she returns to the fold soon....i thought she was just having minor op done?

[Lez]

Thanks Val.
I've been released by the NHS today as they've had enough of me.
Will publish a medical bulletin on 'Snails.....' soon.

[Anita]

Have any of you heard from Lez?

[Val]

Great news Lez! We've missed you!

Today's/Tonight's results:

Carlton Blues (RedJohn) v Brisbane Lions (David)
0.3.3 (Q1) 3.3.21
3.4.22 (Q2) 6.4.40
8.9.57 (Q3) 8.5.53
11.12.78 (Q3) 9.9.63

Gold Coast Suns (Suzy) v North Melbourne Kangaroos (Steve)
1.3.9 (Q1) 7.2.44
4.3.27 (Q2) 9.5.59
7.4.46 (Q3) 12.9.81
11.6.72 (Q4) 14.15.99

Adelaide Crows (Dean) v Greater Western Sydney Giants (Duke)
2.5.17 (Q1) 1.2.8
4.7.31 (Q2) 3.4.22
6.7.43 (Q3) 7.5.47
12.10.82 (Q4) 9.7.61

Don't say I didn't warn you about Carlton! And the pesky Crows have upset a lot of us too. There is no such thing as an easy round in the AFL.

[Anita]

That's great news Lez.

[theDuke]

Nice to see you back Lez! :)

[Val]

Anita will be happy. The rest of us not so much!


Today's result:
Sydney Swans (Anita) v West Coast Eagles (Sussex)
4.1.25 (Q1) 2.1.13
9.6.60 (Q2) 5.4.34
14.7.91 (Q3) 7.8.50
18.8.116 (Q4) 10.10.70

[Val]

There's another game to go before this round is over. Queen's Birthday holiday tomorrow - start of the skiing season when all Demons supporters give up and head for the slopes! And as there is a game on Thursday this week, I thought I'd post the fixture now so there's no excuse for being late.

Okay then, can't do much worse than last week....can I?!

The tigers have done well to get this far..but with their growing injury list and poor record in Adelaide....the pesky Crows should get the job done. As for the others?.....Erm.....

Crows - 25
Hawks - (but not by much!)
Suns - (both teams are awful..but the Suns are well over due for a win!)
Port - (50/50 - either team could get it...but Port are strong and healthy presently!)
Dogs (Doggies are well rested from a bye..so the Blues won't get 2 in a row)
Giants - (the Roos are very good in Tazzyland, but GWS won't lose 2 in a row!!)

I expect to do abismally...again!

G'luck y'all....especially me! :)

Great to see you back tipping Lez. Good luck with your selections.

[Val]

A bit of trivia for Duke:

Former Commonwealth Games decathlete Jake Stein will make his debut for GWS. The defender, who was disqualified for two false starts in the 100 metre sprint in Glasgow, comes in for the injured Nick Haynes.

P.S. The Tigers are off to a great start.
