Who do you think will win the Norm Smith on Saturday? I'm tipping Scott Burns who's paying $15. It usually seems to go to a midfield type of player.
Imagine if some like Heath Scotland wins @$121
Who would have picked Shaun Hart 2 years ago?



Nathan BUCKLEY $4.75
Michael VOSS $9.00
Simon BLACK $9.50
Jason AKERMANIS $12.00
Jonathon BROWN $12.00
Paul LICURIA $13.00
Chris TARRANT $14.00
Scott BURNS $15.00
Nigel LAPPIN $15.00
Alastair LYNCH $17.00
Shane WOEWODIN $17.00
Josh FRASER $24.00
Shaun HART $26.00
Justin LEPPITSCH $26.00
Martin PIKE $26.00
Chris JOHNSON $31.00
Luke POWER $31.00
Brodie HOLLAND $36.00
Jason CLOKE $41.00
Shane O`BREE $41.00
Blake CARACELLA $46.00
Daniel BRADSHAW $51.00

Robert COPELAND $121.00
Heath SCOTLAND $121.00
 
GIve me a little Ben Johnson and a little Chris Johnson. But it's not a very clever type of gambling... too much like pot luck for me.

I could put $5 on both of them, but it would likely be the equivalent of poring a perfectly good six pack down the drain; and one must have one's priorities striaght.

Charman was BoG last week, and if Collingwood stretch themselves in the ruck in the absence of Rocca (with Fraser possibly going forward), he could be up for another big one this week (although, he'll be sharing his time with Keating, so that may reduce his chances a bit).

But if Ben Johnson wins you could buy yourself 30 six packs!

Seriously though you're right in that it's risky gambling, I'd never put more than a few bucks on it but it does make the game just that little bit more interesting if you're a neutral supporter like me.

Another fun thing to do is the Norm Smith drinking game....

(1) Write all the players' name on pieces of paper and get each of your mates to pick one out of a hat.

(2) Make up a big bowl of potent punch.

(3) For every possession your player gets, you have to scull a cup of punch.

(4) For every behind, 2 cups, for every goal 3 cups.

(5) Whoever picks the NSM has to scull the remaining punch in the bowl at the end of the game.
 
I reckon Luke Power is a steal at $31

My smokey is Copeland at $121, I reckon he is up for the game of his life.

From Collingwood, it has to be Buckley and the smokey for the Pies would be Lonie.

If I was a betting man, it would be all on Power, he has been sensational all year, and this would cap it off.
 
Caracella is my roughie, though I think for the Lions Power or Johnson are more likely.

Realistically, very hard to go past Buckley who stands even taller in all the big games.

Pike is good value at $26, considering he's a noted big game performer. Look at last week, Sydney had all the momentum but Pike and a few others simply turn on the tap and wrest it back.
