Round 5 - Tex

First up, I have more excuses for being late this week.  I had a tooth removed and the last thing you want to hear from your dentist as he is about to snap, bash, crack, rip and grind is "yes... I dont blame you for being nervous... this looks quite challenging...".  Don't believe me...?

All I can say is Drugs are Good.

OK officially the Mighties are in a touch of strife. Tex has fallen for the Curse of Horseboys Dream Team and is gone for the season, and the Crows in general are looking wobblier than the Dank/Hird love affair.  The Crows were so bad they managed to finish with 1 person on the bench and fight back hard in the last quarter but still lose to the Blues who received 21 free kicks to 12. Those Blues must be awesome.

Back to ANZAC Day, and the Bombers put in a dominant performance against the Pies. Do we bother taking any notice of anything the Bombers do? They claim they didn't take illegal drugs.  Aha.   Shades of Saddam Hussein there me thinks.  The other ANZAC game was the Sinners and Swans - ahhhh yes the first game played for 4 points on foreign soil. Could they have picked two teams that have played worse games against each other over the last 5 years?  They said it was a success but I just saw a very boring game of footy.

The Haze scraped home against the Tiggers after the ump got in the way on the goal front.  Jack Riewoldt was a very naughty boy apparently. Who cares. Move on. The biggest game for mine was the Paps win over the Beagles after igniting back from 26 goals down with 3 minutes to play.  How an unbeaten team paying at home was not favourites against a team that was 1-3 was beyond me. Hate to say it but thePaps are looking like the Crows circa 2012 (while the Crows look Pap-like).

Brassie beat the Dees (who lost Mitch Clarke), the Cats made hard work of the Dogs, the Suns easily bet the Giants, and in the final game SOMEhow the hawks got home over the Roos.  How did they do that? Lucky lucky lucky... But in the process they did lose Rioli.  Oops.

The Tippers
There were a few tens this week with pavpaaaaaa, Joseph mcaleer and Tom rosewall... Getting the full house and moving to the top of the table. Easy game apparently.

In the streak comp Daaaave 'wepit' Cassell s on 17! This from the an that can't string a single bet together. No shame tat man...

Round 6
The Friday nighter this week is a yawn fest - the Sinners will be pathetic against the Pies. And while I would like to see the Bombers players start their big come down soon, it won't be against the Giants.

The Roos start major favourites over the Paps down in tassie... Here is a REAL chance to give themselves a name... Dare I say go Paps? Hmmm must be the drugs. I think the Roos will nab this one though.

We all know the Crows will smack the hawks, but if you are looking for an upset this week it is the Tigs over the Hawks.

All the rest is pretty obvious... Dockers over the Suns, Sydney over the Lions, Blues over the Dees, and Beagles over the doggies...

Hey have you paid? Email me... I need to pay for this tooth!!
