    Last week they also predicted Essendon. The boys will have to prove them wrong again.

    Ooooh if we keep winning (or at least drawing) the games the 'experts' expect us to lose then shock, horror, we might find ourselves deeply ensconced in the 8 at the end of the year - how many 'experts' predicted that???

    So far this year we have been the punters favourite in both games and long shots according to the tipsters. We have not lost.

    Once again we are the punters faviourite and the tipsters will probably follow the same pattern and go for the Eagles.

    Smart money is always to go with the putners.

    We were not the punters pick in Rd 1 v Melbourne. The Dees started warm favourites.

    we were initially very long and came into about 2.20 on the day. we were about 1.40 at 3/4 time...

    It was of some interest to me to watch the afl show after the bounce on sunday night where the various panel members (and yes I know spud, dunstall, whateley and fleming are an unusual group) had done their tips prior to the start of the season. the first three all had us out of the 8 and whateley had us only winning 6 games.

    i think the tipsters will lean west coast this week - i remember in about 2001/2 dermott brereton providing an example of just tipping the home team and whoever played the bottom team got you a better result than the very best tipping expert in the newspapers...

    We started the game against Melbourne as favorite after coming in.

    Predicting a team wins by 3 points indicates that they don't know who will win.

    They Swans need to pick up from their last two performances.

    I guess we'll need to agree to disagree...

    Win this one and we'll will slide up to 3rd position. I'd be happy with that too.
