I reckon betting shouldn't be allowed with Footy but seeing as it is what price is on offer for the Giants for the spoon next year? Seriously who the **** do they have they will be seriously shite. I'm even thinking of limping out to Blacktown to try my luck there are so many old **** heading out there...I could tell Sheedy that I haven't actually played the game but hey I watched Gary Ablett a few times how hard can it be?
It's got to be better than bank interest surely. A large bet could be the order of the day.

I reckon the Giants won't be able to beat a drum next year and will end up with a Burger Ring in the W column.

I think there'll be times when they get close, because opposition coaches will use the game to rest players. GWS Giants will be known as 'The Bye'.

There will be some scoring records broken this year. What Essendon did to GC in that 1st qtr this season will be nothing compared to what the Giants wil cop. Imagine them copping Geelong at the cattery, could see 50 goals scored

I've got no idea what you just said.

And normally I don't mind a giant lay.

To make $10 I'll need to have almost $10K tied up for over six months. Bank interest is better.

Back a full book at 97% and then throwing away 0.1% to get your exposure back doesn't seem all that bad.
