A.F.L. Thread II

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Fixtures for Round Two:

Brisbane Lions vs. Carlton (The Gabba)
Essendon vs. Port Adelaide (Docklands)
Sydney vs. Fremantle (SCG)
West Coast vs. Melbourne (Subiaco)
Adelaide vs. Western Bulldogs (Football Park)
Collingwood vs. Richmond (MCG)
North Melbourne vs. Greater Western Sydney (Bellerive)
St Kilda vs. Gold Coast (Docklands)
Geelong vs. Hawthorn (MCG)

Which ones did I pick wrong? I thought I only had the Geelong game wrong? Isn't that 8/9?

 

[Jono]

Yeah yours was counted wrong as well, you got 8/9.

Does Brumby have the wrong result for one of the games or something?

 

[BoyBrumby]

Nah, **** ya.

I was counting 8/8 as a full house.

Everyone's score should be one higher, so there's no effect on the overall scores.

 

[Jono]

Every single one of Brumby's achievements in AFL on this forum (tipping, last man standing and Dream Team) are in disrepute imo.

Serious questions to be asked now.

 

[Spikey]

worse than shane watson imo

 

[Jono]

I say it every week, but I ****ing love Rob Murphy on AFL 360.

Twice now he's referred to Ben Hudson as "The People's Beard"

Best bloke in footy.

There'll be blood on the streets at either AAMI Park or Punt Road depending on who loses this Saturday. It's a huge game.

Richmond would be heavy favourites surely? Melbourne would probably be happy with losing by less than 50 points

 

[BoyBrumby]

Anyone in contact with ver Bench for tipping?

Anyone in contact with ver Bench for tipping?

I'll ask on Cricsim for you.

Any chance we could get the tipping in a separate thread. There's so many posts in this thread these days that I get lost in SBI's pictures of age old AFL players I've never heard of and Jono's... stuff.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Pretty sure the cognoscenti like all the AFL stuff in the one thread.

Even if they do use foreign labour for the scoring.

 

[Jono]

Even if they do use foreign labour for the scoring.

And if there ever was a case to stop foreign outsourcing for the tipping comp it was last week

j/ks of course.

Heath, why insult me for btw

And finally, Majak Daw getting report for striking or charging (can't remember) Daniel Pratt is considering he's banging Pratt's ex gf

 

[superkingdave]

He got off, not sure why. I liked this part

"There were a few incidents during the game," he told the tribunal before being shut down by the VFL advocate.

In other news, JZ back this week

Carlton has been granted a huge advantage in these last two games:

- Going into Round 2, they had an extra 2 days break over their opponents Brisbane
- Going into Round 3, they have an extra 2 days break over their opponents Collingwood

2 days extra is a lot
