AFL Round 12

[shari91]

I posted as soon as it started raining.

Its stopped raining, but is still extremely dark outside.

Perth never rains solidly for long periods, but it will still be slippery.

Great minds think alike - read up - I'm on the 1-39 for a unit and -23.5 for 2.

Good stuff!

I'm thinking people are pounding this match simply because they're excited to have footy to liven up their boring Thursday winter night. Can't see any other reason for it.

ya know, i forget sometimes that its winter months there...but how cold is it really? weather says 55 degrees...how much colder does it get?

[Gee]

Ray, that is about as cold as it gets during the day. That is like 12 degrees celcius. We are not used to cold over here in the West.

Today is a bit mild in Melbourne but the other morning when I was crying across the street it was 39/4 Celcius. Froze my nards off. Heating's been going constantly all week.

Same in Adelaide, never rains for long periods, overall it hardly ever rains, doesn't matter what the forecast is.

[Gee]

Yeah. Despite that, I've laid off a bit on tonight's game. Subi drainage isn't brilliant. This weather is spooking me. I'm just picturing Eagles/Hawks from round 4. I've now got 1.5x on 1-39 and 2x on -23.5.

If Eagles lose outright, I'll be filthy.

[Ace_of_Spades]

Really, I thought it was cold and rainy all the time. Lived there for 12 years.

[Ace_of_Spades]

Stupid phone, was replying to lts post.

Shari I thought you would be in costa rica or some place by now

I had hoped so would I. Didn't want to be here for another Melb winter. Soon though!

[raydog]

i really wish the unis werent so fukking similar looking...

[Ace_of_Spades]

Winter is awesome.

[Gee]

Melb is the same all the time - shit, good, shit, good, shit, good. All approximately two hours apart.

I don't see the Blues coming back. I think the Eagles could even cover the 1-39. If I can get a reasonable line (-39.5 or better at HT), I'm going to buy out of that one at HT...

[brettels]

Got a feeling the 1-39 is going to get beat, blues have been hopeless so far. lucky to be only 26 behind right now.

[brettels]

Always on que in-play to my comments, carlton goal !

[shari91]

Remember they tend to rev it up in the 4th. But I haven't been watching yet so for all I know they're completely shithouse tonight.

[Gee]

Mine too, lol.

Cue two goals.

I did this to the Pies on Monday as well

Btw, I don't know what these commentators are on about. It didn't rain for 10 hours straight and hasn't been that wet today. Some big storms, but never for very long.

[brettels]

It just started raining on the siren.

Shari, you been to mount buller or mount hotham? go for a day or 3 during winter and you will be fine for the duration after that in melbourne.

Yeah I've been to both pre baby. Both were awesome but all it did was remind me of why I left my hometown

But I was actually thinking of taking him right before Vegas if we're still here. He can see snow for the first time and I can appreciate the heat even more when we get to the Bash.

[Gee]

Yeah, with the rain, I'm not getting off. Still hoping for a middle.

You will be back here after the bash. You probably should of moved to the gold coast if you were looking for the aussie experience with little cold weather, but you probably been there too right?

I think if you watch the footy show, you are going to come back here to live if you leave. Once you become a footy show person, you are aussie. You can't change.

[Pride]

hawks cant kick for shit tonight.

[quarterback]

Great first half looked like West coast were going to blow then away but nice tight game and the rain is pissing down

[quarterback]

hawks cant kick for shit tonight.

I agree shame there not playing tonight

[Lookingtostart]

hawks cant kick for shit tonight.

They haven't kicked anything at all.

[brettels]

Hawks

[quarterback]

Hawks

Hope he didn't bet buddy to kick the most goals

[Pride]

bombers gonna cover for sure now

[brettels]

now you just being silly

[quarterback]

I must say thank god the eagles are not kicking straight this lead could have been 50+

[brettels]

The way carlton are "coming" i'd prefer they kicked straighter.

[brettels]

Bit nervous now! West coast playing pathetic this 3rd quarter

[Pride]

i wish i just played the blues like i was going to. i was waiting for their number to climb but missed it when it hit 27.5 and the next time i had a chance the line dropped to 22.5 and i bitched out.

[raydog]

Scholar might like that tom swift guy...no doubt he has slipped and fallen mouth first on a few roosters...
looks queer as fukk in this pic... ... but even more flaming today

[brettels]

Gotta be top4 most innacurate side WC
