Anyone betting on Le Tour?

My mate’s dad is a cycling expert.
He (unofficially) has the largest rare bicycle collection in Australia & plans to open a museum some day.
Anyway, he gives pretty good advice/tips ahead of the race each year.
I think he’s just stoked his son is actually interested in the cycling & doesn’t realise he’s got a heap of mates gambling on his race predictions.

His tips landed tonight:



From Dad:

TDF starts 29th June , 2 weeks
My preview

I think there are 4 teams that could win GC Grand Champion
1. UAE Emirates
Tadej Pogacar (2020, 2021 winner) with a very strong team of mountain climbers

2. INNOS
Carlos Rodriguez, Tom Pidcock, Egan Bernal (3 leaders ?)
Tom Pidcock is one of my Fav’s , still coming to grips with Road racing, he is the current Olympic & world MTB champion, Top 3 in Cyclocross.
INNOS will probably decide on leader as race goes on, who ever is highest in the standings.

3. Red Bull Bora Hansgrove
Primoz Roglic, Jai Hindley & Aleksander Vlasoy leaders
Jai best Aussie hope

4. JUMBO VISMA
Jonas Vingegaard, 2022, 2023 winner, but is coming back from big crash in April
Broken ribs, collarbone, punctured lung ( may not start)
Currently training at altitude with team.

This was going to be a showdown between Pogacar & Vingegaard but the injury has messed this up.
I think Pogacar is odds on favourite to win, he may even go on and race the Le Vaulta in September. No rider has ever won all 3 GT in the same year…
Dont think we will get final fields until day before.
 
How does the miss by a stat rule work? Do you need to apply a promo offer on the bet? I had a sgm miss with one leg (liam baker 1 mark instead of 2) but the sgm bet is still marked as lost
I think it only applies for disposals , don’t think marks are included.
 
Cashed out with 3.30 to go in the last for a small profit. Florent needed 3 and Warner 1. Florent then gets 4 and Warner gets his. Left $35 behind.

Had a couple of chances to cash out . Lost this one as that dumb bald prick Crows coach kept Dawson out of the middle. Previous game, cashed out in first quarter. Only 1 betting game left for me not betting on our game.
 
Well named horse

Rarely do it and normally only for 10 yet the Dopey ruckman from Melbourne didn’t even do that. I will never pick another dopey again for more than 10 disposals, f k n useless, where’s his Facebook account needs a good stern talking to, even if I had to get up a ladder and say it to his face lol PS sucked in Melbourne

Same for me, never going to pick a ruckman for 15d again! I generally have that position but sometimes get sucked in by good form
 
Had worse week in ages Bet on St Kilda game which I normally don’t cashed out but still lost bet on Max King another dopey footballer for 1 goal. Both the Kings very hit and miss players. And last game all my Hawk players did well but I bet on Kelly who I forgot I banned and Yeo against my better judgement and lost . Both talented but very lazy footballers.
