Essendon/Geelong & Sydney/PortAdelaide In Game Thread

shari91 · 06-12-10, 03:38 AM

I'm on both of these as well. Best of luck Grounder!

griffdog · 06-12-10, 04:09 AM

Had a very profitable night on the baseball front, so I'm putting more than half of those winnings on the Swans and a bit more on a Swans/Cowboys parlay. Don't know if I can stay awake through everything since I want to be out of bed and wide awake well before the U.S. take on England, but hey, as long as I wake up to money in my account, I won't mind falling asleep part of the way through.

Good luck GnP and Shari, let's cash 'em!

Half the reason I betted on Geelong is because of Varcoe he is so electrifying Essendon is about to get swamped. The faster the pace the better for Geelong.

GroundnPound · 06-12-10, 04:33 AM

Onto the Sydney game

griffdog · 06-12-10, 04:43 AM

Yeah, looks like that Geelong win will be easy breezy for you.

Great start for the Cowboys by the way...up 6-0 quite early. Now I'm wishing I'd taken them straight as well.

GroundnPound · 06-12-10, 04:46 AM

I have watched Port lately and they are a poor side in the league, thus far Sydney are playing to their level.

GroundnPound · 06-12-10, 04:48 AM

Commentators think Port Adelaide are on their game, more like Swans are not.

Is anyone else watching this?

shari91 · 06-12-10, 04:52 AM

I haven't put it on yet. Is it bad news for us?

griffdog · 06-12-10, 04:55 AM

About time they got a goal!

GroundnPound · 06-12-10, 04:59 AM

If Sydney get going they are a much better team, even if this pick loses. It is such value.

Domestic · 06-12-10, 05:05 AM

Come on you Swannies.

GroundnPound · 06-12-10, 05:06 AM

Have you seen our trashie Port's goals have been.

They just did a tunnel ball between the legs. The commentators are acting like Port are a talented team....

GroundnPound · 06-12-10, 05:08 AM

I am in the mood for Swans to get a big lead and for the commentators to stfu

GroundnPound · 06-12-10, 05:30 AM

Thank god Swan got there game on and are starting to trash Port

Jynx it with swans idiot handballing the ball to Port for freebie.

griffdog · 06-12-10, 05:37 AM

Perhaps I should get disconnected more often. In the time I was trying to reconnect, the Swans went from being up 26-25 to 40-25, so perhaps I'll ignore the match and they'll run away with it!

Raiders just made it 12-8.

GroundnPound · 06-12-10, 05:49 AM

Geelong by 30 thus far and sydney by 26.

griffdog · 06-12-10, 05:52 AM

Looking good, looking good. Big second quarter for Sydney. Almost bedtime for me...might catch a bit of the third and see what happens, then nap for a few hours.

GroundnPound · 06-12-10, 05:53 AM

Are you napping so you can watch England USA?

Domestic · 06-12-10, 05:54 AM

Great 2nd period from the swannies, hope they keep it up.
I'm looking forward to Eng USA tonight.

TwoWays · 06-12-10, 06:07 AM

Looking good on both games GroundnPound.

I fell asleep and missed betting on both games

Yessir. Going to try to get three hours of sleep in, get some work done, go to the store and get some snacks and some drink, and be back in good time to catch every minute from start to finish. I'll sleep well when it's done, win, lose, or draw.

A bit after 6:20 a.m. here, so I've got seven hours to go til the match. Going to catch a bit more of the Sydney game and then hit the hay.

One half done on my parlay, things looking good for Sydney...headed for a great start to the day!

RobertPaulson · 06-12-10, 06:26 AM

Good to see all is well atm guys, dont kno much bout AFL but tailed on sydney and geelong

GroundnPound · 06-12-10, 06:33 AM

Geelong on the spread seems safe.

Sydney lead by 19 and should hold on even though they dropped it off.

Domestic · 06-12-10, 06:54 AM

Looking like a very good night GnP, Sydney just need to play smart here.

Domestic · 06-12-10, 07:00 AM

AND THERE IS THE CLINCHER TO Adam Goodes!
We're home guys.

griffdog · 06-12-10, 07:05 AM

Should've added Geelong to my parlay. Still getting used to the fact that spreads of that size are easily coverable within a quarter.

Very much looking forward to what the rest of the weekend in the AFL and NRL. GnP's on a serious roll right now!

Lets discuss both games in here

I just did my bets and I put the barn on Sydney and about 1/3 of what I put on Sydney on Geelong spread.

Lets cashhhhhhh

Don't have too many points right now, but I wanted to give you what I had my man. Been a good couple of weeks tailing you, and I look forward to seeing more winners from you. Keep it up!

GroundnPound · 06-12-10, 07:09 AM

Yay to my 16-1 streak

Thanks for everyone for the kind words, but maybe I should become fade material no streak last for ever.

Wow nice winning streak

aunty jack · 06-12-10, 07:35 AM

that's an impressive purple patch, g-p. good work.

rugby on channel 7... afl on 10... and the world cup on sbs - all at the same time.

i think i'm in football heaven...

GroundnPound · 06-12-10, 07:36 AM

I actually want to play saints and the points tomorrow. Only thing that is making me think about is freo losing last week and st kilda winning big....

Saints are the better team. But Freo are at home.

Domestic · 06-12-10, 10:31 AM

Any thoughts on the West Coast/Richmond game tomorrow GnP?
First instinct for me is to take the Eagles ML, what do you think?
