huge worry, but atleast it was a profitable day.

Geelong are just not playing their typical game. They need to slow it down. I know it's not the same side as last year but I thought they would still stick to their tight game plan, they are not playing their usual tight defence and are getting slaughtered in the air at the moment. They have pegged 2 back, but need much more from them.

It'd be nice if your right mate.

Who do you follow in AFL?

[Puda]

North Melbourne..

Seems everyone goes for the common and scummiest teams these day, aka collingwood,carlton, richmond or essedon.

u?

I was born in a Carlton jumper mate.

Don't hold it against me.

king carey forgives.

[MatI]

He was a gun for sure. Absolutely champ. He's gone off the rails since retirement though.

Your right about the cats, they have warmed up now...

[MatI]

The games I've gone through;

Everton v WBA - have Everton slight favs, predicting 1-0
Villa v Chelski - Blues should win against the depleted Villa, predicting 0-2
Ausburg v Cologne - best value bet, predicting 3-1
Parma v Lazio - another value play, predicting 0-1

I am liking Over in QPR/Arsenal game...

What do you think?

[Puda]

You'd assume the game to go over. not my cup of tea the over/under business. sorrry.


My suggestions:

Everton ML @ $1.80
Bolton ML @ $3.00
Chelski ML @ $1.80
AUSBURG ML @ $1.88
LAZIO ML @ $2.85

[Puda]

Everton ML @ $1.80
Bolton ML @ $3.00
Chelski ML @ $1.80
AUSBURG ML @ $1.88
LAZIO ML @ $2.85

now for some more action.

[MatI]

Nice work Amigo!

I took my two leans, Chelsea ML & QPR over but didnt get to post. The missus was busting my balls after the geelong game last night so I didnt manage to get back on here to post.

Nice.

Any thoughts on the Perth v Heart game>?

[MatI]

Leaning towards Glory ML. They are most in form team in the league and Heart too inconsistent at the moment. Still contemplating what to do and I might wait until after the AFL game. I'm just locking my play in now for WB/Eagles match.

[MatI]

AFL, WESTERN BULLDOGS vs WEST COAST
WEST COAST by Under 39.5 @ 2.43 - 1u

I am taking West Cost to win by 39.5 or under as I expect this to be a tight game with a slight edge to the Eagles. WC are not always that strong while playing at Etihad and are missing their usual fwds for this game. Having said that, they still have a strong look about them and should be able to control the game out of the midfield. Last years game between these two at Etihad was won by only 8 points by the Eagles and despite the personnel changes I expect this game to be similar.

Sorry for late play...

West Coast game was already under way when you posted, not sure if you managed to get on it. WC up by 13 at HT which is positive, but still plenty of time for anything to happen.

Apart from A-League, I will be staying off the asian soccer today.

[Puda]

Yeh ML for Perth seems wise, depending if Miller plays.. could be a tight affair... heart could do some damage on the counter.

They will always been dangerous, but they seem to struggle to execute lately. Finding the net just hasn't been their strength at the moment.

Meanwhile, WC are running away with it now. Out to a 34 point lead.

Actually, leaning on a small play on Gwangju ML in K-League... still sussing it out though.

[MatI]

K-League, GWANGJU FC vs GANGWON FC
GWANGJU FC ML @ 1.88 - 1u

hahaha didnt get in on time. dont ya hate it when ppl come over unexpected and ruin your whole day. BOL though

[MatI]

eh, it was for the best that you missed it. Gwangju dominate the first half but visitors get a goal on the counter 3 mins before half time. This is very disheartening.

[Punter101]

oh well plenty of games left to go + for the night. u locking in perth?

[MatI]

A-League, PERTH GLORY vs MELBOURNE HEART
PERTH GLORY to WIN @ 2.00 - 1u

sorry busy at the moment and no chance for a writeup just yet.

no need for a write up if perth lose this their shooting themselves in the foot

[Punter101]

what an absolute crap 45 mins. call me crazy but i like atl madrid - getafe over 1.5 goals first half at 2.8

Not so common in Atl Madrid games but it does happen fairly often for Getafe. Not one I would touch but BOL!

I didnt think the 1st 45 was too bad, just very stop start and not much flow. Glory got some great breaks though but just didnt get the lucky bounces. I dont think the 2nd half will be anywhere near as cautious though.

[MatI]

My suggestions:
Everton ML @ $1.80
Bolton ML @ $3.00
Chelski ML @ $1.80
AUSBURG ML @ $1.88
LAZIO ML @ $2.85

Puda, are you liking Newcastle at all in the early game? I'm thinking DNB @ 2.24

[MatI]

Smeltz!!! YES!

[Punter101]

well. What a goal absolute impossible angle and across his head and everything. speechless

Smeltz again! Fukn brilliant goal. Legendary!

Great call by linesman for once. Those are typically the type they will not call.
