Breezys NRL round 5 (and AFL)

3-6 last week taking the record to 10-14. Couple of hectic results last week. See how I go this week.

Love the Bulldogs here, even straight up. Brisbane haven't impressed me this year and I expect them to only be on the downhill for the next few years making possibly their next couple games depending on results, inflated.

Canterbury Bulldogs +6 vs Brisbane Broncos (1.90)
Bulldogs ml vs Brisbane Broncos (2.80)

Collingwood 1-39 @ Richmond tigers (2.40)


And just in case because this happened last week against me

Collingwood ml @ Richmond (1.73)

With you on the AFL plays. 

With you on the AFL plays. 

Bit disappointing about Pies vitamin. Plenty of opportunities to kick to a 4 goal, even possibly 5 goal margin but blew it. Real easy kicks as well. Makes ya wonder how you get paid to be a forward these days.

Chris Mayne missing that sitter when Pies were dominating which would have given them a 24 point lead basically was the turning point of the game

Yep that's mainly the shot I was talking about. Fasolo missed and easy one as well but it was definitely maynes 15m not much of an angle shocker that killed the pies. I'm eagles supporter so I've seen these mayne shenagins before.

Afl:

Sydney swans +20.5 @ Western Bulldogs (1.91)
Swans ml @ Bulldogs (3.05)

Sydney roosters 1-12 vs manly sea eagles (2.90)

Really loving the cowboys at -9.5 as well but like these plays better. Will sus out more a bit later

I would highly reconsider the AFL play for tonight.

The Western Bulldogs are on the improve after some handy signing's in the off season while Sydney is not, if anything, they may tumble as age catches up to a few of their stars.
Injuries have also hit them, Rampe and Heeney are two of their most dynamic players (along with Franklin) and on this particular ground, the Bulldogs half back flankers are going to run and carry the entire night.

I'm not suggesting it will be a blowout but I don't see how Sydney could possibly win. Even if Franklin manages 7+ goals, the inclusion of Tom Campbell in ruck will allow Boyd to play at centre half forward and there is far too much firepower with he, Cloke, Crameri and Stringer.

Western Bulldogs -19.5 points is my pick.

Thanks for your input bobby. Great insight and talk. Once I post the play in here though I have already played it. I see what you are saying, but the Bulldogs won the grand final from 7th last year while Sydney were near top for most of the year. Bulldogs had a great finals series. Probably one of the best in history, but that doesn't change my view. No real game winners apart from bont and stringer and we know how stringer is most of the time. Rely on run while Sydney have the better player in every position. Better backmam, better midfielder, better forward and better ruckman.

Appreciate the advice mate but unfortunately already gone the swans. Think this is the game swans show everyone where they are while exposing the dogs a bit. Thanks for the advice again, hope to hear from you tomorrow for the games or sometime soon! Maybe even post your own thread, you posted some great advice. We all could use it. Anyways good luck tonight man
