    I have a large free bet ($500) (well large for me anyway) to use by end of day tomorrow. Any help would be appreciated.

    October- Daily Punt

    Know the feeling well. A family member and I have a quaddie every sat in melb. We have been successful seven times this year but on two occasions we have lost money overall, such as last weekend. Failing ......

    Umpiring Who here has actually umpired a game of footy?

    I had a similar one a few years ago. Goal ump was useless and her dad was running boundary. A player had a wild shot for goal and it went on the full by metres. I was right behind the kick and saw it clearly as did every player in the area. She signals a point and everyone just starts going off...

    1990 The Final Story

    Absolutely brilliant TV. We were a very close side that year. It was a no secrets doco which was great. Some guys were very emotional. What affected me: 1. The story about Matthews/Brown/Daniher at 1/2 time. Matthews slamming Brown's head into the wire fence and screaming at TD that Brown is...

    Unusual punishments

    Didn't involve me directly but heard a good punishment dished out by the late David Hookes when he was coaching Victoria in cricket. One of the players was late for a morning session after a loss, so he made every other player in the squad pad up fully - bat, gloves, thigh pad, chest guard...

    Unusual punishments

    Teacher made us put our noses on a cross he drew on the board with chalk. Problem was the cross was at a height where you had to contort your body to do it. We had to stay there for 30 mins.

    The Fitness & Weight Loss Mega Thread

    Taz - I just read your blog from Feb 2012 and then saw the recent picture of you. You seem to be progressing well. What are your measurements now? Your earlier thoughts on energy in versus energy out were spot on; however, you will reach a point where that is not enough to achieve the results...

    Women. Men. Pregnancy. Trap.

    One of my mates got married recently. At the reception the inevitable question came up about when they would have kids. He said "couple of years." Few hours later I mentioned that to his new wife. She winked at me and said "I think it will be a little earlier than that." Blokes - we control...

    Here come the PIES!!

    Agree with this to a point but if we lose I hope people don't try to use it as an excuse.

    AFL Finals - Week 2

    Lines are about -9.5 adel and -3.5 pies. Skinny so stay away if you think those teams will win. Value in H2H or margins this weekend. If you multi them H2H you can get $2.85 and multi with 1-39 $5.05. Pretty good for only 2 legs.

    Do we omit Maxwell if we make it to the grand final?

    He rarely actually plays on someone so I think he is a player that can come back into the side and play a "role" somewhere without upsetting a winning combination. He must play for all the reasons listed by others. Great onfield leader. Gee we will do well to win both games without him............

    I don't think Swanny is going anywhere either. Just wanted to have a dig at MM.

    Anyone care that Matt Campbell was arrested?

    Hope he got a few in to the "big house" security. God knows they have given a few away themselves over the years.

    Maxwell to step down as captain and hand over to Pendles in 2013. Bucks is not happy with his carelessness in getting 2 weeks suspension at this time of year.

    Eddie McGuire working on a story that will blow footy apart

    It probably has to do with the blues and salary cap. Perhaps Eddie is just letting them know that if they get Cloke, he will reveal all he knows. If Trav signs with pies again, he will throw another lame story out there in disguise. Many from other clubs bag Eddie, but they also fear his power...

    Toast Travis Clokes return to form

    I think the opposite. Keep the spot light off him and just let him play in the finals. Then announce it afterwards. Announcing it now draws more attention to him.

    Toast Travis Clokes return to form

    May have already done so. Drums are beating that others (Melb, Freo, Car) have either lost interest, signed someone else or can't afford him.

    Aggro vs the Hawks

    Liked the tactic. It was something different. It is rare that I watch us lose a game, especially by 38 points, and yet I come away somewhat satisfied that there was some spirit shown, particularly early. Now I look at next week against wce with some real hope that we will put up a fight in a...
