I was a goalkeeper in college on my college's team, would always play the position of safety in American football games, and was offered a scholarship at Eastern Michigan University to be their football team's punter. I had/have soft hands and a big boot. When I saw an Ozzie Rules game and these guys flying up to gracefully catch the ball and then kick it downfield 40-50 metres..........I was astonished!
It's a perfect game for a safety/punter! HAHAHA!
Been in love with it ever since and understand the players side of it because those two aspects hit home with me. Besides, it's one hell of a sport regardless and is really a shame it hasn't caught on worldwide.
Thanks again guys and I will say it again...this forum is the best on this website. I wouldn't nearly be as smart or as good a punter if it wasn't for all the regulars on here. Wonderful.

Good to hear mate, I may have the odd giggle from time to time at a comment you make but every contribution in here is valuable especially when researched as thoroughly as what you do. Keep up the good work and we are all here to make money, not a truer word said than when you said this forum here is the best on covers. We've said it many times before :)

No write-up but am jumping on Port Adelaide -4.5. Could have had them at a pick 'em, but muddled my feet.
West Coast is very out of whack and Port has played great football the past few weeks. They got downed by Geelong (close match!), Sydney, Adelaide, and were in complete control over Brisbane until it started raining. 0-4 to those teams. Very, very respectable and I think it underplays how good Port is right now. They are just having trouble finishing.
West, on the other hand, are in shambles and are getting pumped by everyone now it seems. Notably, they got slaughtered by Adelaide in Round 2 by 76 points and lost to Fremantle (!!!) at Subiaco (!!!) by 14 in Round 3.
Port Adelaide is the play here.
Good luck and let's get this done!
