AFL Round 18

Question

Getting a bit sclack with updating my YTD but with do when I have time.&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Essendon ML / Blues &#x2B;24.5 (7 units)&#xD;&#xA;Geelong -32.5 (7 units)&#xD;&#xA;Brisbane -6.5 (7 units)&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Not much of a writeup at the moment, have to go out. I like the bombers to win straight up and while the crows may win I don&#x27;t see them kicking bag loads (with their forward line troubles) more than the blues.&#xD;&#xA;Its hard to look past the cats, one of the best bets for the weekend. Tigers consistently fail to put 4 quarters together. Cats could demolish them anyway but it just takes the tigers to switch off from %100 effort for 5 mins for the cats to roll over the top of them.&#xD;&#xA;As for the lions, I found last week, although they lost, they finally put in an effort (for most of the game) they can be (semi) proud of. Obviously they have struggled the past month. Even against the eagles they didn&#x27;t look confident in building their attack. But the fact its in QLD and their improvement last week I&#x27;m willing to put some money on them.

Your double should be a winner.Everyone&#x27;s on Geelong.....good luck!I like the Roos SU here.  Although not as quick with the ball and terrible at moving the ballout of their backline, the Roos should still be able to out disposal, ouut handball, out kick the Lions away from the Gabba.

Yeah you have a very good point about the roos. Maybe I&#x27;m thinking more with my heart than my head

Ok its been a great weekend over all sports, so looking to continue, carefully and steadily.

Swans +24.5 / West Tigers (7 units)

I expect a close battle and the 4 goal head start is enough for me.

Just jumped on Sydney to win after 1st Quarter, $2.05.

If the Swans lose, they show it early. Likewise, when the Bulldogs are going to stomp sides, they show it early. Neither of these teams are a Carlton, hello, we are down by 40, SURPRISE! we are now winning by 15-type of team.

Swans are very competitive right now and are giving the Dogs fits at Manuka. I expect that to continue and at $2.05 is well worth the risk.

I apologize to the Swans and all of their supporters.Call me the Kiss of Death.  I should open up my own business.  When you need a jinx and need it fast!  Call me!  I am dependable!Swans are brilliant in the First Term, I drop some coin on them, and then in the Second Term they go on to kick 1.3.  And if it wasn&#x27;t for Hally&#x27;s goal with 5 ticks on the clock, it would have been even more embarrassing.Lovely....

So its you I have to blame HOH hehehe&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;I don&#x27;t normally do these sorts of bets, only putting some small change on it for fun in the late match&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Brent Staker first goal @ $23&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Also putting some on (touch wood) an unlosable bet, shit did I just say that, very short odds but pick up a bit extra &#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Freo &#x2B;24.5 / Broncos &#x2B;12.5 @ $1.22 (7 units)&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Even if the eagles win there&#x27;s no chance demolish the dockers and I see the broncos putting in a good win.
