Yes, Jeff.

The fact that you even think I have only one book shows you know nothing about what you are doing here.

You will notice the + infront of my record.
You might also want to go and have a look at Sports-Punter.com if you get a chance.

Maybe you haven't noticed, but you're a quality 1-3 on posted plays here. You playing Richmond + or won't your mummy give you any more change? :shrug:

Anyway...won't waste my time getting into any kind of verbal with you. It's all a bit easy.

Great start to the Geelong game, beast! Delayed on tv here :mad: ...hope you are getting to watch it.

The sooner Fox get exclusive rights the better. Friday night is bad enough without having to put up with this crap. :(

Massive plus Christo.... You should be looking at retiring soon. I didn't play Richmond, i spent the money on your mummy:142hump:, I must admit, there was plenty of change to work with. Your retorts are as comical as your plays which have a tendancy to favour favourites.

LOL!!!...aaahhh...This is the last time you will get a response, and only 'cause I actually find you quite amusing.

Favourites hey? Sorry, mate. Didn't realise there was any law of gambling that states "Thou shalt not back favourites to win $$" :rolleyes:

Also a kinda funny call since my loser this week was a 2.40 shot....My ONE (yep! bad week..they happen!) winner last week was Carlton +42.5....and I also took Dogs +12.5 and Sydney +14.5 :shrug:
Oh.....and your ONE winner was the 1.65 Dockers today. Nice! :thumb:

And mum jokes!! Come on now.
Given I reckon you're about 14, your mum might still actually be in decent shape! :tongue Just to think, if I had have had change for a dollar, I could have been your daddy.

Now, surely you have something better to do than hang around here and wait for me to reply??

Please mate....there's a blue-light disco out there with your name on the door....or are you grounded?

EDIT: And just as a curiosity....What was the inside information you had on the Kangaroos today??

EDIT 2:
Whose your bookmaker Christo? He's a very lucky man

I hope you have double english first thing on Monday morning too. ;)

Solid day for ya beasty. Keep it up mate. Thought the dons would continue the streak tonight but I guess I was wrong. :mad: Very suprised to see them go down considering their form of late and the fact that this happens the week after we lose our skipper again raises questions. Jeff, keep the BS out of here mate as we have had a clean thread here for a few years now and wish to keep it that way. Positive information and opinions are welcomed mate but straying from this to verbals with one of the veterans on the board does no-one favours here.

:D :D ...as I said, PAWA...I was in a cheery mood, and the little fella just made me giggle!

Yep. Sweeps to beast and CranMan I believe :thumb:

Great work lads. Made up for a frustrating Friday night, beast? :mad:

Was WAY off with my Freo under, but honestly...the chances of Medhurst kicking 9!! :eek: :D

Richmond/Port under never really in doubt.....Saint's to outmark West Coast tomorrow for a decent weekend.

Was gunna add a bit in the PAWA Express thread, but I may as well do it here and now.

While I didn't necessarily agree with Brisbane tonight, it's impossible to deny you've had a rough trot!!
Keating goes out early. Leppitch FAR less than 100%. Mal Michael strains a quad!!
I'm starting to think the Express is actually running over some of these teams!!

The Lions effectively had no hope at all, after Bradshaw was forced to play in the ruck!!!...and Chris Johnson was the main forward target!
...It gets better (or worse obviously!!)...After Bradshaw went off, Tim Notting was the ruckman!!

That train of yours has definately hit a black cat, a china-man and any other bad luck charm it can possibly find!!

Will go on the record to say (oh dear, this is a bit Jeff-esque! :D )......Melbourne will beat Brisbane at the Gabba next week! :cool:

Richmond?....Well, they were just plain terrible! :mad:

bomber...we must have just posted at the same time. Interesting stat....Essendon have not beaten a team in the top 8 this year! Sorry, didn't pick that up earlier. :( I wouldn't feel too bad about tonight tho...This Geelong team is better than many people give them credit for.

Night all.

Christo, the wins don't make up for Friday Night but they help. The Melbourne cover was nearly as frustrating when Kanagaroos got to within five after dominating for three quarters but it was certainly nice to get the two winners.

Bomber...Hird being out was one of the factors in my decsion to back Geelong. When he is out Essendon lose some confidence and don't look like the same team. This is just my perception and I don't know whether the stats would back me up on this.

PAWA, don't give up on the express. The train will get back on track as it's record over time proves this.

Sunday Plays:
Bulldogs +5.5 d Carlton
Bulldogs 2 win record is misleading as if they could kick straight they could have won as many as 5. Carltons had 2 of their 3 victories at Optus but these were against an awful Geelong and a West Coast side who didn't score for a half.

Other games:
Sydney - Hawthorn
Sydney have to be favourites at home but have probably not been playing well enough to be 21 point favourites. Hawthorn have done little this year to make want to play them.

St Kilda - West Coast
St Kilda will win and the only question is will they win by 6+ goals. I think they can but at this stage they will probably just be happy to chalk another win no matter the margin.

A.F.L. moneyline wagers

I placed at Pinnacle earlier in the week a wager on Sydney @ -245 to make 1 unit

Will pass on the Blues/Doggies

Why shouldn't I bet the "farm" on St. Kilda's match ?

Good luck to everyone and here comes another late night/early morning !

Thanks for the thumbs up!

Thanks for the thumbs up!

MrChristo-

Thanks for the Smily sign on the sweep!

I am dying to put the families 40 acre Iowa farm on the Saints moneyline HA!

Actually looking at wagering to make 7 units. Are you aware of any "down to the wire" weather/injury situations?

Nice willpower to not further respond to the heckler that was in your "show".

Have a strong finish to Round 9 and thanks for your input!

Christo, you are just pathetic. Your retorts are pathetic. Your clinging to sweet nothings if you make an effort to correct grammar mistakes on an internet forum.

Heres something Christo-esque, St.Kilda HH today. Firm favourite. Looks like it'll increase your impeccable record. Your better off playing the pokies Christo. I wouldnt touch your plays with stolen money. Better yet, with counterfeit money.

Carlton -4.5 looks pretty tempting.

Weather won't be an issue, CranMan.

Game will be played indoors, in the dome.

Honestly can't see the Saints having too many problems at all, mate.
Wouldn't like you to literally "bet the farm" :D ...but no late changes for either side.

Good luck :cool:

Glad someone can come in here with 8 posts, all that have been critical of Cristo's plays, or fudging on his record, and waste everybody's time. Tell ya what Jeff, I would steal YOUR money, and bet Christo's plays. That way, I'd be screwing you, and making MONEY!!!:thefinger Take it somewhere else, this forum has been great for 3 years, no point in screwing it up now. JP

MrChristo -

I knew you would enlighten the farmboy from Iowa HA!

Just finished reading up on the Saints/Eagles match, saw the venue is the Telstra Dome, and noticed you in this thread.

Let's see! Iowa farmland (s.e.) is valued on average at $2,000/acre so I will be wagering a little over 2 acres.

At the moment it looks like the Swans are taking the Hawks to the "woodshed"!

Thanks again and I am on the clock regarding the Saints!

IX - I know it was a bold move on the Saints wager and possibly could warrant a 72 hour evaluation HA! Nice calls on your soccer on this day!


jpblack34 - Thanks for the well wishes and right back at you! I am playing Texas Hold'em and checking the score OFTEN!!!

I can't really help you with any updates either, no tv coverage CranMan.

Got Hawthorn/Sydney game on one tv, and sweating my Doggies out on the other!! :tongue

Ended up taking the over 185.5, but very late, so no use posting.

2 quick ones to the saints as I type ;)
