Brisbane v Carlton (Gabba) – The Blues head back up North for the first time since Easter Thursday last year when I followed ’em up and they delivered a stirring victory. The Lions looked good against a listless Essendon team last week, can they back it up at home against a team that isn’t being put through the ASADA wringer? My tip: Blues by 35.
Richmond v Essendon (MCG) – Dreamtime. Lets hope it once and for all erases the memory of the racism that we saw last night. That’s all I’ll say on that subject. Some SC thoroughbreds getting around in this game: Watson (new to a lot of people’s teams), Cotchin, Dusty, and Goddard. Add to that list Heppell, Hibberd and Vlastuin. So even if you hate the sash teams, you’ll love watching this game. My tip: Richmond by 9.

Again, top work Gustavo. Thank you.
Guys, after a bad few days, im stuck on 1838 with 3 to go (and C as well in Gaz.)
Opponent 1634: Burgoyne, Lynch (Crows) and Duffield
Me 1838 : Buddy
Both have Gaz (C) and O’Meara
Projected to play out a draw… will i get over the line?
Thanks for your opinion!!
TU Yes
TD No
I think for the first time I am able to use the captain loophole!!
Have the VC on Jobe.
I have Crouch on bench and Evans playing.
Is it correct that I play Crouch on field with the C and then put evans on the bench with the E on him to get his score for Crouch??
If so, then that will be great for my score!!
Appreciate the confirmation if I’m correct!!
Montagna as VC, he scored 134…
T/UP: Roll the dice with a hope that Gazza scores more,
T/DN: Take Montagna’s 268 as Captain.
Who to field?
T/UP: Kerridge.
T/DN: Crozier
