After finals. Ive ratchetted all season too. Collected on 8 and 4. Got top vic, make gf, flag still alive. Even got the tiger v swans quinella going at 100-1. I think ill reinvest significantly on us to best cats at $2.2 also

I wont even talk about Foxplay and the Epsom, cause its the wrong thread

Oh, wait, the epsoms run on GF day this year. Ive got Foxplay going at 30's 8-

Its quite literally, once in a lifetime punting. Maybe once every 2 lifetimes

I might be spending 2018 building a cabin called tigerland, so all you blokes have somewhere stay in the rainbow region

Which outlet paid out on top 4 pre-finals?

Brilliant!
 
Disappointing we can't supplement our income from this thread this week. :(

Toothless has been very scarce as well on here.

Worried about him.

I've had a tough couple of weeks, apart from a good collect on Sydney making the 8.

Hoping for a lift during the finals. I better read this thread religiously the next few weeks.
 
the only value left in futures is tiger norm smiths.

17 dusty, 34 chimp, 40 rance.

ill speculate lightly on those.

but be riding the tigers to win the next 3 all up.

its business time alright

First rule of footy betting: don't get too financially invested in the Tiges.

That's the way most of us roll, but easy has done very well ignoring that rule, evo. He has a sixth sense for us. Get him to tell you how he rode our 9-win run to the finals in 2014.
 
Fair enough. I'm willing to lisen to any ideas at the moment. Ol' Gil is down on his luck.

Its a good rule that ive been able to successfully break.

like many, 35 years of unbridled misery has taught me to understand Richmond better than I understand pretty much anything.

2014 and 2017 have been my best returns.

The No.1 rule to success with Richmond, dont back us when we are favourites (this year was a little different week to week, but I played the long game).

hence, its all laid out before us this friday night.

Like the tigers, I think its the hill I am prepared to die on in 2017.
 
OK fellas, ive studied the form.

Looking closely at the Cats and Tigers record on The MCG and Domain Stadium (which is simply the MCG 4000km to the West)

On the two big grounds, the tigers 2017 played 13 for 2 losses by an average winning margin of 30 and avg losing margin of 5.5 points.

the cats played big ground 7 times for 3 losses. 2 of the cats wins on big ground were in the first month verse Hawks and Freo, who were entirely *smile* at that stage (I fully acknowledge here that I am torturing the data for a confession). Their other two wins

on big grounds were by an average margin of 3 points.

The cats suffered MCG losses against Collingwood and Essendon.

The take home message? cats are a 50:50 proposition on big grounds against all opponents and they didnt meet a quality opponent on a big ground all year.

we are a quality opponent.

Therefore, I think we win by our average 2017 winning margin on big grounds (MCG and DS), which is 5 goals.

However, I would caution against playing margins in finals. You dont get a premium on the margin odds, but the notion is entirely different to H & A.

If you are really tempted by the margins, play them very conservatively.

Tigers to win. H2H @ $2.2.

So, we're a 16% chance of winning the flag......


I wonder what chance the Bullies were this time 12 months ago?
 
OK, time to keep the amazing run of winners on this thread rolling.

Crows V GWs tonight. Think the total points line is light with two teams that score heavily.

GWS also going in with 3 tall forward so expect some zing out of the Crows backline

Over the 171.5 total points line the play.

Let's go!!
 
You're on fire with the overs, Brian.

GWS look too tall. Patton, Cameron, Lobb and Himmelberg? Crows at $1.57 seems generous.
