AFL......Round 16

[PAWAQATSI]

Season to date 32-29

Hoping to shake off last weeks dismal 1-3 showing (The logic always makes sense before the game starts!!)

Round 16 kicks off on Friday night with Collingwood v Richmond at the M.C.G. Richmond did belt the Pies in round 1 of the season and despite going along average of late, they do have the closest lineup available, to that of the round one clash. The Tigers have also won the last four encounters. Therefore receiving +30.5 points is too tempting in a game that the luckless Tigers could actually win. Richmond +30.5 v Collingwood Collingwood's over-rated Buckley is also out suspended for the disgraceful blood smearing incident :nono:

Sundays Adelaide v Western Bulldogs game is the other stand out game at this point in time. Bullies getting +12.5 against a team whom they have defeated in their own yard on the last four occasions. Despite last weeks blemish I'm back for more. Western Bulldogs +12.5 v Adelaide

Perhaps more to come.....will continue to delve.

Pawamech system at 17-10 selects Geelong +12.5 v Essendon as the only eligible team this week. Don't agree but must oblige!!

Good stuff PAW.

Richmond have actually won 11 of the last 13 meetings, but I must say no more

God I wish I shared your sentiments on the Doggies.
I said before the season they would finish bottom 4, and despite some great showings and raising the hope of all us Bulldogs, I think this is where reality hits home.

McLeod and Stenglein back for Adelaide....and although they have won the last 4 in Adelaide, you'll notice none have been during the day! A day game in reasonable conditions makes it a more free-flowing game.....I don't like our chances, but I sure hope and hope....and HOPE

Hawthorn have yet to win a game v. a team in the top 8.

Not saying they won't win, but just some info.

****ing Richmond have stopped as if shot
Just hope they can hang on for a handicap win

F...K ME!!! :shrug:

How did the Tigers blow the game???
4-7-31 v 2-6-18 at the half.....basically 43 points in hand for the line, then they kick just 3 more goals for the match to Collingwoods rampant 11.....WTF?

I'm shattered!!! This is one piss-poor football team. No wonder their members were throwing their season tickets onto the field last week in disgust!!! I sincerely apologise for anyone who followed the play and I swear I will never put one dollar on this team ever again.


Some more plays (to fade!)

Melbourne ML v Hawthorn

Kangaroos +15.5 v Port Adelaide The Roos have played in 9 of 15 games decided by 15 points or less this season for a 5-4 record. Port have never beaten them in 8 attempts and it is an away game for them, in Melbourne at Optus oval which is not much different to the S.C.G where they struggled for an after siren win last week against Sydney. Conditions here will be wet and windy so it will suit the Roos who like it in close and scrappy rather than fast and free flowing like Port. The Roos must win to stay in touch of the top 8.

Cripes!....taking a pounding lately!

Another 1-3 on selected plays with Richmond, Melbourne and the Bulldogs(shoulda listened to MrC!) all disappointing. Only my Kangaroos standing up and delivering (we own Port Adelaide!!! 9-0)
Season to date now standing at a coin tossing 33-32!! Sheeeet!!

Elsewhere the Dockers, Saints and Swan lines were better to me in lesser plays. An interesting stat that I have started to run with is that 7 of 8 lines offering +39.5 pts or more have got up this season. Keep it in mind
Essendon have also lost their last 8 straight lines

My Pawamech System surprised me with getting the Geelong victory and now stands at a very respectable 18-10 and has just doubled the initial starting balance It should kick on from here if history is repeated.

....and well picked Beasty

Thankfully my Schumacher insurance policy is running again tonight......at $1.90-get on!

Catch

 

[MrChristo]

You weren't on your own, pal!

I had a shocker myself

Richmond +...well we know what happened there!

Thought Port would break their duck

Essendon/West Coast double....and **** me if both don't get flogged, and I thought both were good things!

I must have appeased some idol somewhere tho overnight as I somehow shrug: ) manage to sneak Sydney +40.5 home with a goal after the final siren!!!!

Much the same tho PAW.....1-3...worst week for a long time.

We'll just put it down a bad week, shall we, and get right back in the winners circle next week
