Saints are such an inconsistent team. They are a betting nightmare.

They almost beat North four weeks ago and since then they have lost by 103 points in Perth, 88 points in Adelaide, and struggled against the then winless Dockers at Etihad.

They have put in some stellar performances like knocking off a red-hot Demons, and getting within a kick of the Hawks and Roos. They were also very impressive in their win against the Pies too.

I think I would prefer to go for the form team instead of going for an inconsistent team capable of playing well.

Completely agree with everything you just said......but i actually think theyll win this weekend :p
 
Brisbane drifting. Any thoughts on brissy beating freo? Haven't watched many brissy games but i think freo were made to look a lot better than they were by essendon not even really turning up

I'd be staying away from the Saints. Riewoldt, Monty, Dempster are all sore and Carlton are playing hard running two way footy. I don't see them getting over the Blues, Gibbs won't be quiet two weeks in a row and Murphy should be back.

Definitely worth a shot. Have taken it too Sydney, Hawthorn and gave North trouble at the GABBA.

Love the value for Adelaide this week. Eagles havnt really beaten anyone good this year they just beat up on average teams at home. Crows are red hot, might have abit at the crows line
 
5.25$ for Gold Coast against richmond is good and 1.41$ for Rocky to get 30 possies, last time they played Crowley was on him and he got 45. Not bets I'd take if ur already down for the season. Carlton at 1.60 is great value, bookies still not sold on them by the looks.

Crows on the line is a very good bet this week. Expect a few changes for us, nicnat potentially out and a few other very sore bodies.

Might have to disagree with you on this one to a certain degree. They are a young team and lack consistency, but I expected that they might "mail it in" on the road trips. Late last year they got pumped by the Eagles and again so a couple of weeks ago and against Adelaide. It's a tough road trip and even the Coach stated after the game that the players probably doubted they could win.

Two good performances in a row then surrender meekly on the extended road trip. Last year after every win they were very poor the next week, but they seem to be able to string a couple of good performances together now.

They seem to perform well against teams that lack pace (Melbourne, Collingwood, Freo), but they were surprisingly competitive against Hawks and NM.
 
Anyone thinking Hawthorn might fail to cover the -67.5 pts against Essendon on Friday night?
Yup, we have been average since round 2, we should win, but haven't really put away any sides this year. Said it before the Brisbane margin looked better than it was, and we have fallen over the line against St.kilda, Dogs, Crows and Melbourne. Mitchell finally being tagged by the opposition has really stuffed our ability to control the ball off half back. its a good line, even for Essendon to cover.

all over the gold coast win/line/pick your own line
 
Compiling a few bets whilst I have the time...

Hawthorn under 3.5 behinds 2nd quarter @ $2.10 - gone under 10/11 times this season, 2nd quarter is their worst overall whilst Essendon's median loss for the quarter is by 5 thus expect it to be reasonably competitive until blowing out sometime in the 2nd half.

Essendon +16.5 2nd quarter @ $1.85, Hawthorn only won by this 3/11 times, Essendon only failed to cover 3/11 times.

Fremantle -1.5 in the 3rd @ $1.91, Brisbane only won two 3rd quarters for the season, Fremantle have surprisingly won 6, and the last 3 in a row. Apart from this Brisbane are in my opinion a complete rabble too.

North win first quarter @ $1.89, North have won 8/11 including 7 of the last 8 (faltering obviously against Sydney) with a median differential of 15 across the season and 16.5 over the last 6 weeks. Geelong are essentially dead average overall in the 1st over the season. Hawkins out helps this too.

Adelaide over 3.5 goals in the 3rd @ $2.30 - literally 11/11 this season, whilst WC have played mostly 'easybeat' teams at home, solid bet (Also why are Adelaide @ $2.80 I don't get it?).

GWS over 3.5 goals in the 2nd @ $2.20 - 9/11 this season, risky as Sydney have only allowed over 3.5 against in the 2nd twice this season, however one of those was GWS earlier in the season so not terribly worried about that stat.

Will post player market plays once they're all released later in the week :)
