Members bolty58 Posted September 30, 2017 Members Share Posted September 30, 2017 (edited) Good stuff. Blew them away in the third quarter. So many sports teams this part of the world are contrived and false. Been to the rugby and its wank, mexican waves during the first half etc I know it's not your favourite game but there's real history in AFL. Richmond been going since the 1880s. I don't have a team but I live on Richmond Rd atm, plus the story about them meant I was supporting Richmond too. It's a tough game played by hard fellas with great foot and hand skill. Lots of grown men crying at the final whistle. Really enjoyed the game. Aye mate. All of those comments agreed with. I wouldn't tell any Aussie that though! Still get pleasure from asking 'How can you get a point for missing?' A lot of people up there probably wouldn't know this but organised Aussie Rules precedes the world game. They were looking for something to do with cricket grounds in the winter. http://auspost.com.au/education/afl/students/afl-history.html Edited September 30, 2017 by bolty58 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spooky. I had an odd looking $287.50 in my account so rather than the intended $250 bet I put the slightly higher amount on and netted a $345 profit. Almost matching amounts (well, digitally if you get my drift). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mounts Kipper Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 they've always had a very good away following, and they've only won 1 of their last 10 matches at Bolton I'm not normally negative but with us winning against them in the cup and their manager getting dogs abuse they'll be well up for it I'd think you can add this game to zero point column as well.
