Don't worry we have plenty of defenders that we have yet to trial as forwards. Chris mckaigue, Max often come on down!

Surely it should be "come on forward"?

Great bet Nich! I had $30 on myself nearly fainted when the ball went over the back. Wished he would have slowed down and straightened up. Then had a chance to take the mark 30m out directly infront but a great spoil ended that. What might have been...

When he took that shot my heart was POUNDING. So damn close. I really had a good feeling about it too. Ah well. Not too often you can put $30 on forca return of $2k and get a run for your money like that!!

I missed the first 5 minutes of the game - probably lucky given news of Spangher's off centre snap.

It's not often you lose some money but end up thinking that was a really good bet but yes that's how I feel

[Nich]

So close!!!!!!!

[Cardinal]

I'm on for Spangher - I heard it here first !

[Nich]

I hope not ugg - i'm on for a collect of $2010. If Spangher gets me home I'll be happy to shout drinks at the next home game : ) Actually if the Spang gets up I'm going to bid for one of those auctions for my Niece to run on as a mascot!

Judging from the success rate of the 'tips' offered in this thread, I think Spangher is going to finish goalless.

You saying we know nothing???

Would be funny if one day this thread caused a big media storm if we all jumped on a particular bet. Can imagine now the news story coming out about how Matt Spangher was backed from 70's into 20's to be first goal scorer!!! They'd think there was some betting conspiracy going on until they found out RWO have a thread on speccy bets.

Not a hard and fast rule but all our subs have come from the bench that is named on Thurs/Fri

[Nich]

True, true. Although I wouldn't be laying 45k on so if I lose $10 on the sub rule I think I should still be able to pay for dinner Sunday night : )

[ScottH]

You reckon? I know Team Sheets aren't the be all end all but seeing as though he is in the starting team and Horse has mentioned he'll be partnering up down front with Sam I would have thought he would start. Looks like a straight swap for Jesse to me.

You're probably right. But the sub rule just adds another layer of doubt on these kinds of bets.
