AFL ROUND 19

Hawthorn V Collingwood

 

Its happened again with the side “with all to play for” against the side with nothing to prove. Prices stay steady all week with punters happy to back their picks. Hawks @ $3.00 Pies @ $1.40. Hawks still hanging in there for September action, Pies shaping for 3rd or 4th. Brownlow watchers Crawford may have polled!!

 

Bigger Bets

Coll $11000 @ $2.30 1-39

¼ Time Hawks $1000 @ $4.25

¼ Time Pies $1000 @ $1.20

¾ Time Hawks $2000 @ $1.40

¾ Time Pies $500 @ $3.00

 

Carlton V Port Adelaide

 

A quiet game for most punters just happy to see this game run. One of our good (their all good) clients summing up the game perfectly whilst placing money on Port 1-39 and then following up with a wager on Blues @ 44points start. (Too Good)Brownlow watchers Doubt on Francou any votes, Primus maybe!!

 

Bigger Bets

Port 1-39 $7500 @ $2.75

Blues +43.5 $17000 @ $1.90

Port @ $1.09 $5000 (Few scares late)

 

Richmond v Fremantle

 

Would the real Fremantle Dockers please stand up!! After thrashing the Hawks by 10 goals plus, last week they meekly yield to Danny’s Tigers. Punters happy to leave this game out of their weekly investments. Turnover on this game smallest for the week.

 

Bigger Bets

None to mention

 

Brisbane V Western Bulldogs

 

Surprisingly punters stayed away from the Gabba “giants”, with an average winning margin close to 50 points, our office found punters steering away from the Lions. Bulldog fans looking like packing up their season 2002. Brisbane will firm to odds on for the first time this year. “Gossip” watchers did you see our smoky Headland for the Medal? Could have polled again! S Black votes!! None for Darcy & Johnson

 

Bigger Bets

Bulldogs @ +24.5 @ $1.90 $11000

Bulldogs 1-39 $5000

Still $40000 multies still alive with the Lions

 

Kangaroos V Sydney

 

Has there been a bigger turnaround in the last ¼ than this game in 2002. Roos trying to seal up some September action, let the game completely slip from their grasp. Swans play their hearts out with limited playing personnel available due to some injuries during the game. Again the tried and true formula of home side @ odds against Sydney $2.50 getting the money.

 

Bigger Bets

Even through both sides.

¾ Time $3.00 available Sydney but no takers

 

Adelaide V Essendon

 

This was a reasonable betting game with Adelaide being well supported straight out as well as at the line They look like the side to threaten Brisbane. Watch out Port.

 

Bigger Bets

Adelaide –15.5 $20,000 @ $1.90

Adelaide $4,000 @ $1.50

St Kilda V Geelong

 

Hopeless betting match. The uncertainty of where the match would be played and when contributed no doubt to a lack lustre encounter.

 

Bigger Bets

None worth a mention

West Coast V Melbourne

 

There was very little support for the Red Legs. One way traffic with punters only wanting to back the home side.

 

Bigger Bets

West Coast –17.5 $5,000 @ $1.90

West Coast –17.5 $3,000 @ $1.90

West Coast –17.5 $1,800 @ $1.85

West Coast –22.5 $2,000 @ $2.00

West Coast $4,000 @ $1.47

West Coast $4,000 @ $1.43

West Coast $2,000 @ $1.43

West Coast $3,000 @ $1.41

In Summary

A good week for punters. Tip for the week Adelaide likely to give Port a wake up in the derby next week.
