Round 7 - Gone.

Well, this is more about Round 8 cos Round 7 is YESTERDAYS hero... We all know the Pies went belly up. So yes, there were a cuppla upsets, but in the Tipping there were 4 who stood tall. Once again Kermie was up there with 6, but so were the Grunter, Luke (the cute one), and Muchacho. Very good effort there and so now leading the way we have Muchacho and The Nipster on 39 points.

After the debacle that was Friday nights game, the side comp features 8 lonely combatants - none of them in the upper echelon of the table. Round 8, so $80 on the line. Tip wisely ladyfolk...

Round 8
Take my word on this. It is a tough round coming up. Actually it isn't - there are 4 dead certs to choose from - but the others are tough, and the toughest is Friday night. Freo - the team you just don't want to pick because let's face it, they are crap - are coming up against the Hawkers - the team that lost to what can only be described as a bunch of loose change. Deary me. Can I tip that whatever I tip, it will be wrong? In the immortal words of Dave, they are ALL Rubbish.

Speaking of rubbish, the Dees play the Doggies on Saturday and it will be a joke of a game. Why even bother? And speaking of why even bother, the Cats will smash the Kanga's. So there are yer two certainties ladies...

The other certainty you can think about is the Crows over the Lions. Don't fall for the old 3-4 record of the Crows. 3 of the 4 teams we've lost against are at the top of the table, and the other is Port who somehow have scraped into 4th. The Lions are pretty good at home but clearly the word 'certainty' is one that is a perfect fit for the word 'Crows' this week. Indeed you can call it Certainty Saturday, because the only way the Swans will lose to the Weagles is if the Swans use the Saffa Food Poisoning Defence Mechanism circa 1995, and accidentally eat from the wrong plates. Swans by lots. Which for the Swans is about 3 points.

On Sunday the Paaaah will beat the Tigers by plenty and then say how good they are for another week before losing to some bunch of never-was. BUT fear not cos there ARE two great games on... first up the Pies n Blues. 50/50 game and should be a treat to watch. Then the Sinners n Bombers. 100/0 game and should be a treat to watch because I love watching people in Red n Black cry.
