Three More: It's Getting to be a Habit
/The Line Redux Fund has so far this season acted with restraint and discernment. This week we've more evidence of that first characteristic; let's hope we also witness more of the second.
All of which is a cryptic way to introduce the fact that we've three line bets this weekend:
- Brisbane, giving Collingwood 9.5 points start on Friday night at the Gabba
- Sydney, receiving 8.5 points start from Carlton on Saturday afternoon at the SCG
- Hawthorn, giving Port Adelaide 23.5 points start on Saturday at the G
The latter two of these bets represent our 2nd bets on Hawthorn and on Sydney (both of the previous bets were winners).
Moving next to tipping, we have:
- Unanimous support for the Lions over Collingwood, though ELO has only a 3 point margin, making this its Game of the Round
- Carlton tipped 11-2 over Sydney
- Port Adelaide tipped 9-4 over the Hawks, with the 9 including all the top-ranked tipsters bar BKB
- Unanimous support for St Kilda and the prediction of a blowout by BKB, Chi and ELO
- Geelong tipped 11-2 over Adelaide
- Essendon tipped 9-4 over the Roos, with the 9 once again including all the top-ranked tipsters bar BKB, and Chi tipping the Roos but by only a point, making this his Game of the Round
- Melbourne tipped 7-6 over Richmond, with Easily Impressed II the only top-ranked tipster siding with the Tigers and even then only doing so because they were more lightly flogged last weekend than were the Dees
- The Western Bulldogs tipped 11-2 over West Coast
(Note that we're once again waiting for the line market to go up for one game. I'll include the details in Monday's results.)
