Record 6-3 +10.50 units

Both NRL dogs covered last night so I expect a little bit of a fightback today from the favourites.

Canberra vs Sydney City

Can't tip the Roosters after last week's horrific showing. Raiders should really run up the score on these guys because it's quite clear they're thinking about the off-season and not footy. The motivation should once again be there for the Raiders in what should be a comfortable win.

Raiders - 6.5 @ 1.92 for 2 units

Carlton vs Essendon

Some key ins for both teams, however the ins for Essendon are probably more influential with Zaharakis, Stanton and Ryder back. Judd is back for the blues so that's fantastic for them and no doubt he'll be hungry for the footy. Should be a cracking game and I like Carlton to get over the line in a contest that will likely be decided by a kick or two either way.

Carlton SU @ 1.80 for 2 units

More plays later but those are the ones looked in for now.

BOL tonight bud i dont like the look of that Raiders line as you cant be sure what Chooks team will show up. They one that can play hard and compete or the one that will lie down and take it hard

Hey MVPease, you raise some very good points. i agree the raiders should be fired up and ready to go today, while the roosters can start thinking about 2013. 

6-3, nice record lol.

Yeah just going on form and judging by that we will probably see a bad roosters side. Canberra haven't played well at home though so I guess you never know. BOL to you too snake.

Oh and thanks King. Good luck with your tips this weekend

Still a long way to go. Five goal swings always happen in the AFL but it's a good position to be in right now. If Carlton ends up covering along with the demons covering the negative spread then I'll be hammering the underdogs in the AFL this afternoon/tonight.

I originally liked Freo giving the points but surely not 4 favourites covering the spread to start the round...

i follow it but I find it hard to get a grip on sometimes in regard to betting it. i'm much better at the NFL but i don't put my picks for that on here. hit a nice parlay this morning on the preseason. oh and i'm from Aus

Depends on the teams playing. some games are poor but others can be exciting. i love seeing good pitching rather than batting

It may sound silly but i find it works. I'm goinf to hold off to almost kick off and see what happens in that melbourne game.. but if melbourne cover the -34.5 spread then i would be very confident on it because very rarely do you see four favourites in a row cover the spread to start the round. not saying it's impossible, jusy unlikely. besides, i see adelaide covering the spread tonight and i think a dog has to get up somewhere. and richmond have been doing well lately anyway. i'll make my mind up in 30 minutes

c'mon snake, fair shake, stick with league and afl. You don't see kingSB writing about his belovered EPL team arsenal in here. 

So now that I've bought some order to this thread, let the king enlighten you all on his pick of the night. 

Cronulla +6.5 tonight against south Sydney.

This is a game that which ever team ends up losing, will more than likely fizzle out for the rest of the season, I expect a close enounter and don't see the boys from the shire giving up that many at home in such a big game. 

Hail the king, 

Sb out

BOL, however, teams have an atrocious record backing up from Monday night football and it is a short turnaround.

Cronulla have alot injury issues, Wade Graham is a huge loss, he was pretty much there secod best player....adds alot.

GI back is massive for the Raibbits who would have learnt alot from last weeks game...

You seem very confident sb. Something you'd expect from a King I guess. Might even trail you on the Sharks play.

And despite it being your first post, all hail the king.
