Incredible that it took the Rangers so long to get hold of that.. Boomers tougher sans their big names Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashtee Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 Yeah, good coach and always give a fight. As we know, there's nothing strange about a team thinking they've got an easy win, only to fight tooth and nail in the end but it is strange that a constant deluge of money backs Boomers in from +4 to pick at one point.

Ashtee Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 Currently one game between top and fifth, with SEQ two back but game in hand. Had a dip at predicting final ladder. Thought in terms of percent probability rather than earmarking wins. Factored current injuries but bearing in mind full extent of injuries will become a factor. Of course, it will end up nothing like it after a result or three throws everyting around. Perth on shakey ground for top due to splits. Perth 16+ (P-T 0-2, P-B 1-2) Townsville 16 (T-B 0-2, T-D 2-0) Bendigo 15+ (B-D 1-1, B-Q 2-1) Dandenong 14+ SEQ 14+ (Dand & Bend have splits, others open) Sydney 14 (S-D 0-2, others open but tough) Adelaide 8-9 Melbourne 8 Canberra 0-2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashtee Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) Adelaide -3 @ 1.90 Boomers mounting injury problems and this shouldn't be too hard for Adelaide to cover even if are down a little off a tough weekend and the workload Mitchell has had to cope with.

tom2tom Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I kind of felt the same way about Adelaide, thought they should be heavy favourites, only thing that worries me is they are shooting at a pretty low %, they will need to keep banging those boards and getting lots of second chance points to keep in the clear.

Dog&Under Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) Played Lynx -13.5 .. Horror spot for the Boomers tonight is an understatement. Perth should be up for it given the chasing pack for that top two finish Edited January 30, 2016 by Dog&Under Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashtee Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 Yes, a little gun-shy after got sucked into (the not so motivated) Townsville over Canbera last week. Although Canberra have a better squad on paper than Boomers tonight. Can't find an update on Lavey's fitness but I'm happy with this number regardless. Perth -13.5 @ 1.90 Bendigo @ 2.60 & +4 @ 1.94 I'd expect Rangers response off a slack weekend but Bendigo look fit and well placed, despite always aware of dodgy factor. A couple Rangers under injury cloud but I made Spirit no worse than evens, even if Blicavs is OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dog&Under Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) Yeah line was right where I marked it for that game (dan -4)... need a really strong case for me to back bendigo week to week .. moto with them this season seems to be invest only when their stocks are lowest .. Lavey is back tonight btw, was announced earlier today. Edited January 30, 2016 by Dog&Under Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog&Under Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Could be wrong but looks like a bit of a 'f*ck you' from Dandenong to Bendigo - up 6 with 10 seconds left and call a timeout .. that can sometimes be a taunt from the team that's in front and about to win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashtee Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 Hair pulling moment was turnover at 0:34 when Griffen should have got to line to go two down but the play went six down instead. However, great defence & systems Rangers have - eight was a fair result IMO. Think I mentioned couple weeks ago they were good enough to win it IMO, just that getting top-2 is problem given Perth & Towns both have the split.

Dog&Under Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) Perth completely disinterested in doing anything tonight .. it's just the rule when I back them high on themselves after going up 10 early ...

Ashtee Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) Never really barrack for it but often I'd rather these ones even at HT than cruising 15 up. Edited January 30, 2016 by Ashtee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dog&Under Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) what on earth is this term / clause in DeNesha Stallworth's release from SEQ to Canberra that she can't take the court against the Stars? Is this WNBL or the west wyalong wednesday night workers' league ? http://www.canberratimes.com.au/sport/basketball/canberra-capitals-import-denesha-stallworth-leaves-negative-energy-in-queensland-20160128-gmgcpe.html she sure doesn't think much of her former team Edited January 30, 2016 by Dog&Under Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashtee Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 Canberra +2 @ 2.40 Pinnacle Won after QT last week against Townsville. Adelaide could be weary on second leg of consecutive road weekends, where they've been up for each game. Best part of this bet is Caps can keep their flawless losing record and I still win. Took quarter of the stake +4 @ 2.03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog&Under Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I really want to take Canberra in this spot, especially with the money pouring in for Adelaide but geez it's hard to know whether this team even wants it anymore ... Leaning Sydney in the later game but again, what version of the Jeckyl & Hyde SEQ stars do we cop today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashtee Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 (edited) They either win on a sniff of inspiration or lose doub digits again, which is why I was always thinking odds but rather than taking 2.60-2.70 I thought +2 was a good deal - perhaps more likely get done on a last play rather than close a losing gap. Same with Sydney game, as you say. Don't fancy the cap but leaning to Flames win odds but wanting it to drift somewhat.

Dog&Under Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Flames out to +7 ... this is getting very tempting now, given no injuries. Favourable spot for SEQ in terms of HCA and travel but this game is entirely winnable for Sydney if they bring the level they've brought on a consistent basis this season.

Ashtee Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 Missing Swords but they should be desperate agian. At the same time SEQ look onimous if they're not caught a little slack off those wins - usually put a knock on a players after getting POW award too.
