1-2 (-1.23)

Right...Can't really believe I'm even typing this right now, but....

How the hell are Richmond 1.65 favs in any game?
What is it now? lost 15 games in a row. The Wizzard Cup game v. Collingwood proved they had forgotten how to win, and the game on the weekend proved their defense/loose midfield is as bad as ever, they've allowed 100+ in all but one of those losses. (v. Freo in Melbourne.)
...and that point originally got me thinking, maybe Hawthorn is the one team in the AFL right now that can't take advantage of that??
The Hawks have topped 100 only twice in 22 games!!..going back to Rd. 2 of last year.
..BUT...When they did, they won. 120-109 v. Doggies and 109-86 v. the Tiges themselves in Rd. 21 last year.

Anyway...the point (as obvious as it is anyway!) I'm trying to make is that this is a 50/50 game at worst for the Hawks...maybe even leaning slightly in their favour, and they're 2.20?
Geelong were missing 5 of their best players last week too.
Yes, you'd be a brave man to get involved, but technically the value is certainbly with the Hawks! :mj14:

....and if anyone else can find a winner this week, you're doing a lot better than I am!!
Hoping for a few points for Geelong that might be worth a look at, but damn all the other games look pretty spot on.
I didn't think Melbourne would open as short as they did, but 1.40 is about right, imo.
Freo have to be a chance, but history would suggest not down here in Launny. (Should be a very low scorer tho!)
Too many injuries to call Port/Brisbane (esp. Now Voss is ?? after he cut his leg with a stanley knife!!)
Adelaide midfield should dominate Collingwood, but were will they get their goals from?

PAWA, Kanga's have to be live dogs in Canberra too? Although Sydney belted you guys there last year, I see Sav didn't play that game, no Thompson (obviously) and Saddington kicked 4 for them.
Might be worth looking into taking some points with the Roos.

Carlton under-manned down back, but can Essendon take advantage? Where are you're goals coming from, bomber?...esp if they have to play Lucas back on Whitnall? (maybe Bolton)
Essendon got smashed in the clearances by Melbourne last week too....But Carlton a bit skinny now @ 1.67. (Probably should have jumped @ 1.75 when they opened).


Well, how's that for a rant to get week 2 underway!! :scared
Sorry, got a bit carried away!...Can't wait to hear what anyone else here thinks...I need al the help I can get this week! :clap:
