Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Have you ever seen two better games of footy in your life than the pair we saw today on Easter Monday. 84 712 people packed the MCG to witness an absolute classic between Hawthorn and Geelong. A see-saw affair where the lead swapped a million times, the noise of the crowd could be heard from […]
A couple of weeks ago we went out on a limb and declared that the then favorites to win the flag Adelaide would get beaten by the Pies and then dumped out of the finals by the Hawks. Boom boom. The Crows went down at odds on in both games and now they are gone. […]
Only two teams this century have come from outside the top three on the final table, Brisbane Lions last year from 5th place and the Foota-scray (the Western Bulldogs) in 2016 from 7th. Based on those stats the only teams in with a serious statistical chance of winning the Grand Final are the Crows, the […]
We have received some interesting information from multiple sources since we published our story about southern bookmakers clamoring to field at the Albion Park trots during the Winter Carnival meets.

A tinny who gets the rub of the green when every other bugger lands in the rough. Tinny? This. https://greensdictofslang.com/entry/tra6m3y I don’t know the fella, so I didn’t really […]
Gday Arch We agree wholeheartedly with your Jason Grimson story this morning!! 100 percent. However the owner of Major Meister R Weightman is Ross though we think, not Rod. Ross Weightman is a Mildura friend of Frank Barone and they have had horses together before. Ross is no relation to Rod. He is however the […]
Michael Pell is the AFL umpire accused of leaking Brownlow votes to his mates so they could all make a motza punting on medal winner. What a scumbag. I guess with a surname like Pell is was sort of inevitable that he would end up being a corrupt prick. Karma I think it’s called. This […]
Every member of the church that sacked Essendon boss Andrew Thoburn leads has to pledge allegiance to the tenets below.
