AFL Finals Week 2


Recommended Posts

WESTERN BULLDOGS 1.25 vs BRISBANE 4.00 ---- -/+ 25.5 : 1.91 COLLINGWOOD 2.18 vs ADELAIDE 1.69 ----------- +/-5.5 : 1.91 Doggies are short enough and may be worth a go at the - line considering their superior H2H record and the fact the Lions only just scraped home. Both are good finishers but the Lions defence tends to leak goals more easily and are quite vulnerable with a few suspect players injury-wise plus they are playing away from home. Pies were disappointing for the 2nd week in a row but they've had much more stronger opposition than the Crows so understandable that the Crows are starting favs against the Pies. Pies usually match up well with the Crows, they will act smarter at the selection table this week and they enjoy this kind of situation where they're backs are against the wall. Pies @ $2.18

Re: AFL Finals Week 2 Just hope this thread doesn't go as crazy as last week, Oz :hope - trying to keep up with all the quickfire posts. :eyes Bit of talk how Murphy will come up but I also suspect Bulldogs may blow this out. Some of them (Bris injured players) may not come up so well on the 6-day break, not the depth of experience WBD have, and now that the worst coach in the eight is absent, I doubt WBD will hand over any advantage. From the Rd-19 meeting Collingwood will basically have Fraser in for Pendlebury. Bock, Dangerfield, Hentschel were all absent for Adelaide and they lost an influential Burton after HT, leaving them frail in attack. Adelaide led at HT, but were then well controlled by the Collingwood D, and eventually fell right away in Q4 to lose by 21. So we probably should take Adelaide heaps more seriously here although I've the hunch Collingwood will produce an ambush on the 'talk of the town' Adelaide. I make it about evens but may be interested in Collingwood at the +5.5 or even try them to win by a margin.
