    Oh hi Nick Xenaphon, I didn't hear you slither in. Clubs aren't run for the bookies, but they do answer to the AFL - the same AFL that many corporate bookies pay a product fee to. You'd be silly to think the AFL doesn't have an interest in listening to those they have partnership agreements...

    And so, the race to the Coleman Medal is over. If you asked me last year what price I'd give you on Jack Riewoldt ever winning, I'd have told you squillions.

    I like the look of Troy Taylor, could be a good player if he stops bashing people up.

    It's not - Chapman. Have been saying the same thing myself for a large part this year. Doesn't matter which team, who you've got, where you sit; Chapman is the man for all occasions.

    Must've been pretty bad weather in Adelaide tonight - West Adelaide beat Port Adelaide 22 to 15.

    Speaking of which, these are the numbers I've got for the points this weekend. Five points either way usually results in a bet. Geelong v Carlton - 192.5 Hawthorn v Fremantle - 177.5 St Kilda v Richmond - 176.5 Sydney v Western Bulldogs - 175.5 Collingwood v Adelaide - 179.5 Port Adelaide v...

    The numbers for this Hawks/Freo game just don't add up. The ground average for Aurora stadium this year is just over 171, yet the line is 42.5. Now I've got the total points in for 177.5, which would split into 110 for the Hawks and 67 for Freo. The forecast is for a bit of rain before the match...

    Bookies love this ****. Move the line, watch all the punters come anyway and see if the Dorkers can be competitive.

    It is, very sorry to all for last week again. Anyone who submitted tips will have them graded, and those who didn't will break even. I think that's the fairest way to do it.

    Well I guess it depends on what you classify as a steal. He might end up being worth the price tag, but by any measure I've got he'll never be a steal. It makes sense to be splashing around the cash they have on a player of his vintage from a list management point of view, because with a max of...

    I doubt they'd be anywhere near the salary cap with Burton and Edwards going. Goodwin and Macleod are gone as well IIRC but only half of their salaries would've counted towards the cap because they were veterans. To be honest, they're probably closer to the minimum than the maximum. Without...

    The next few weeks should be interesting though, you'd expect Bock isn't the only one. Hutchy is going to be like a pig in ****. More so than usual anyway.

    Exactly what I was thinking. They're completely different scenarios - Adelaide has nothing to play him for, so of course they'd play someone else. Whether that's spite or not doesn't really matter.

    Interesting how Ch 10 reports that Bock was adamant that he'd only been considering this offer for the last fortnight when even his manager, Ricky Olarenshaw, comes out with this: "It’s been a little bit fast-tracked in what we initially thought, but he’s had an offer on the table for a couple...
