I might just go to the game on Monday. I have my membership ticket after all.

No it's still fine. You just get the away (second named team - Carlton) for tonight's match which is now well and truly over. Brisbane got destroyed, so you have got a point. The rest of your tips will be counted as per your post.

Douglas, I can live with what you have done this week. For the next 21 weeks could you please post your winners in the order of the matches as I list them each week, instead of randomly naming teams.

This thread and contest takes hours of my (freely given) time each week. It takes me long enough to check through and tally everyones tips that are actually listed in the order of the games as requested, without having to check posts where teams have been randomly thrown at a wall and then listed in random order.

Thanks for complying in the future.

Norm

Yep, a couple of much harder games over the next couple of weeks. Did I ever mention I detest Carlton and hate to see them win?

Peter,

This is one thing you and I agree on, I hate to see Carlton win.

Good luck on Monday, should be a great game.

I just hope there are no serious injuries to either side.

Bill

I printed out after typing my pics, I will check to make sure they are in order. I don't know the teams but at least I won one.

There was a post that a list of teams from round 3 to round 23 where did it go? I need to check the team order for each round to make sure I have them in order.

I post the following weeks matches usually immediately after the completion of each Round. They can be hard to find after 20 - 30 new posts have been made, so there is a complete list for the whole season here if you have trouble finding my post:

And speaking of Round 3, PeterS has kindly donated a spot prize, so please don't enter your Round 3 tips until you know what the competition to win it is:

Thanks Peter.

What time is it down under? it is now 12:18AM central time zone in the US has the Saturday games for week 2 been played yet? I hope they post the scores.

"They" is me. Two games today, Saturday afternoon (still being played, but both nearly over), Three more later tonight (7:30 AEST), two tomorrow and one on Monday.

Did you even bother reading my post on this thread as to when Round 2 was actually happening? I think you will find that it is not April 9 yet, so it makes it rather hard to update the thread, and post the on-going Stampboards ladder two days in advance of the events. I gave away my Crystal Ball years ago.

Essendon 111 d Port Adelaide 86.

Port actually looked quite good until a short manned Essendon ran away with it in the last 10 minutes.

Sydney 94 d Fremantle 81

I am not sure that Coaches tactics are often that valid. With the players totally stuffed, a Swans player in the last five minutes "escaped" with the ball, went to kick it from half back, and there was NOT ONE player forward of him. He had nowhere to go and no one to kick to!

I have a disability that makes comprenshion slow, thats no reaon to get nasty.

We have noticed. Please READ what is posted very clearly, at your own speed, and you will not have any issues.

This thread would be a nightmare if all asked "who won yesterday?" after the results were posted above.

===============

Back to the AFL - tipping the SWANS is never a bad idea I have discovered.

Swans beat Fremantle who just beat Geelong, who were (once) Premiers.

That thinking can get you into a mess of trouble, Glen. Here's a tip for you, don't tip the Swans against Hawthorn at all and rarely when they play away from home.

Actually a Swans supporter won the whole box and dice last year. But he knew what side of butter to bread it on.

For my first time doing a round and after missing round 1 I am 5-1 with Sunday and Monday left, this is fun.

For Round 1 you will get an average Rounded score average from all the members of the competition. The average was 4.9, giving you a 5.

OK, it;s only half time but North Melbourne 80 lead the Witches Hats, sorry, GWS 80 to 4.

I am beginning to revise my thoughts that they might win 1 - 2 games. I am wondering if they will ever kick another goal. What is going to happen when they play a good team?

Norm ... GWS will kick 10 or 15 goals against struggling teams like Geelong so that will inspire them.

Can you please check this result
