2024 Season ( Almost on us )

Magnarc · Guru

Just watched the Dees beat Crows on their own muck heap. I note that the booing capital of Oz is alive and well over there.

Cats are on tomorrow so I guess it will be our turn next!!!

Craig1 · Guru

Yep, great wins by Dees and Storm, somehow both hang on.

It is supposed to be " friendly, non boo weeeknd " ha ha

Southern Cruizer · Guru

And the Bluebaggers bag another one. Getting to be bit of a repeat lately. Just might have to sneak some of the gear back out the hiding place.

Morning boys and girls.

The bombers are not performing the way I have told them too, so might have to go down there and give them a pep talk.

Now, I know you are hanging by a thin thread to find out how my Atlanta Braves are doing in the baseball over there in the USofA. Well, they have been performing well really, won 5 out of 7 games. A very long way to go until season ends though.

Local Baseball got washed out yesterday though. Bugga!

Edit....NEWS FLASH! NEWS FLASH! We just took game 3 of 3 winning the series. Now 6 out of 8 Games.

Keep Safe on the roads and out there.

Well a Melbourne double is a good result.

My weekend tips were a bit hit and miss 9 of 9 for the AFlL but only 4 for the NRL.

Craig1 · Guru

Dastardly Dons hang on by their toenails. Aided and abetted by three of the worst marking attempts from Crows.

Mighty Storm again.

Dougwe · Chief one feather

G'day Craig,

Yep the mighty bombers win the night. Storm doing well. My Atlanta Braves over there in the USofA have now won 13 and lost 5 so looking really good so far. Long way and many games to go yet though. Can't ask much more of them at this stage.

Southern Cruizer · Guru

AND another win for the Bluebaggers

Magnarc · Guru

Beware of the catters mates. Six straight. I feel real good today, I reckon I'll have two G&T's instead of one, might even add a glass or two of Sav Blanc just to round things off!!!

Craig1 · Guru

Dees stroll in after an uninspring 1st half.

Storm do it well

Dastardly Dons and Mightless Magpies play a draw, should have been scoreless. confuse confuse

Craig1 · Guru

Too early for " bluuu it, Baggers " ??

I feel slightly sad for you Graham, but they failed to take their chances. Could have won it but the catters took advantage of their opportunities.

(only very, very slightly!!!!)

Hey Craig.

This coming round has me befuddled.
In the last two years I have been in the prizemoney (top 250 at end of season) with the AFL on the Sportsbet AFL & NRL tipping comps.
This year I am knocking on the door again with 3 perfect rounds so far this season. (235,785 tippers)

There are 4 really close difficult games this week.

So far I have logged in Crows to beat Port, Pies to beat Carlton, Swans to beat my son's team GWS and Geelong to beat Demons.

The Dons and Freo are no specials either.

Where have I gone wrong this week mate !!!!!!

Craig1 · Guru

Ron, these tips could all be wrong

rmoor · Senior Member

Ohhhh

Thanks mate - you are a big help

rmoor · Senior Member

Craig.

I have reneged.
Swapped Collingwood for Carlton as there is late money going that way.
67% of the market is going Carlton's way now.
The money is often right.
Just hope that is the right decision, don't like changing selections.
We will see mate, this is a tough round.
This could easy be a 5/9 tipping round.

Craig1 · Guru

A Deeliteful Saturday night. What a doozy of a dribble by Fritsch to can the cats.

Storm hang on again as well.

Ron, you put the moz on yourself pretty well.

rmoor · Senior Member

Thanks mate!!!

Yep, been kicking myself since.
Was a tough round, good game last night though.
About to watch my Dragons get toweled up by the Sharks in the NRL.

Bobdown · Guru

Craig, your boys nearly stole it but another close win for the Blues.

There is the Quindanning Pub down the road from me, that does a nice lunch, your buy next time you are over here.

Cheers Bob

Craig1 · Guru

Ha ha, had to surface didn't you.

Still, cant give up tp a 6 goal lead and expect to win, so well done to you.

Southern Cruizer · Guru

Bluebaggers seem to thrive with these close games. Go Blue boys

Craig1 · Guru

A bad weekend for most supporters here, dastadly dons excepted.

But, GO Storm, survived the lack of a Munster and accelerated after half time.

Dougwe · Chief one feather

Yes Craig, the Dons are up high on the ladder as we speak and Storm had a goodie.

Meanwhile, over in the USofA MLB is well under way and My Atlanta Braves have won heaps but sadly lost a few as well. A few of those few should not have been lost though according to the stat sheets but, that's sport for ya. Never mind still heaps of games to go yet. One game the other day they were performing poorly so I yelled at the screen and told them how to solve the problem. Yep, they won. Takes an Ozzie to lead them down the path of victory.

Keep Safe on the roads and out there.

Craig1 · Guru

Ah, the highs and Extreme Lows of following Dees, gawd struth.

Dastardly Dons got there's as well, Cats show a bit.

Storm at the Top of the Tree somehow with a game in hand still.

Coachroches and Canetoads to come with late call ups by the Blues.

Magnarc · Guru

The catters made us sweat for two quarters. They are definately not quite "on song" at this time. What on earth happened to the Dees????????

Dougwe · Chief one feather

Well, Storm sitting pretty for now, Bombers are enjoying the second run on the ladder for now, both good to see.

Now, as for my MLB Atlanta Braves over there in the USofA, they are up and down. Even though they sit second on the division ladder their performance is far from consistent and good. They have only won 33 and lost 24. The stat sheets show most of the 24 lost should have been wins. I have spoken to a few supporters over there and we all agree that someone should seriously look at the poor performers and the Manager (Coach). These guys get many, many $$$$$$$$$$ and it's not to lose. I might have to jump on a plane and go over to have a long talk to this team.

Keep Safe on the roads and out there.

Southern Cruizer · Guru

A good win by the Bluebaggers on the weekend over the .............. can't say it. Some people here follow that team.
At least the Baggers are now 2nd on the ladder

Dougwe · Chief one feather

Now come on SC, you know those Blues cheated and paid the umps A win this week Bombers.

In that other game, Storm are sitting as high as they can

In the mean time over in the USofA my Atlanta Braves in MLB are not performing well at all. I think it is time contracts are looked at seriously. These players get paid BIG $$$$, BIG. Amounts not heard of here in OZ and it's not to lose.

"Not happy Jan"

Keep Safe on the roads and out in the playground.

Craig1 · Guru

Good one Storm.

An average effort by Dees against " the team 90% do not like, "

May need some CHief Talk here too. At least we wont lose the bye this week, I hope.
