World Grand Prix Darts – Ante Post
The Grand Prix starts on Sunday with the unique format of a double in, double out. It is always a terffic tournament in Dublin.
Regulars will know i am a MVG guy and he is my tip to retain his title. He opens against a young player i put up for some success in the Matchplay and that is Keegan Brown. I tipped him to beat Robert Thornton and he pushed Dave Chisnall all the way in the last 16, losing in a thriller 13-11. MVG knows he will have to be on top of his game over such a short format. He produced some great darts in Blackpool, his lowest average was 99.19. Huybrechts or Van de pas await in the second round, Kim in particular would be tough, then another youngster in the Quarter Finals, “Bully Boy” Michael Smith, who really needs to start going deep into tournaments. All these players like to get on with it and the pace and flow of the games will suit MVG and i think he can at least make another final, whoever he plays, he will start as favourite so cover will be available. MVG to win is 5/2 Bwin
For a long value each way shot you have to look at the bottom half and Phil Taylor is the obvious big fish, however despite him dominating on the tour events in Australia and Canada, I like the chances of the machine James Wade. He was a runner up last year. Wade as got stronger as the year as gone on, he made it all the way to the final of the Matchplay which is another tournament he loves and he has won the Grand Prix on two occasions. Wade biggest strength is his doubling which is crucial here. He as started to find some scoring power too, and while not a formidable 180 scorer he hits a lot more 140s than he used to and that gives him a great chance at Dublin. I am taking him at 16/1 E/W various and to win Quarter 4 ahead of Taylor at 7/2 Bet365. It looks like it will be a Quarter final match with Taylor, and Wade wont be 7/2 for that match.
In Quarter 3 it is Gary Anderson’s to lose, on paper at least. He opens against John Henderson who he should beat fairly comfortably. He would then play Ian White or Jamie Caven. He as a 7-3 H2H over White and a 13-5 H2H over Caven. It would then be probably Robert Thornton or Justin Pipe and again Anderson owns good records over them although they are close. He leads Thornton 13-11 and Pipe 10-6. Anderson has improved on his doubles over the past two years and if he gets away with his first 3 darts his scoring power will come to the fore and put pressure on his opponents. If you didnt see the coverage of the PDC tour down under, then the last time you saw Anderson on the big stage he was getting dumped out the Matchplay by Mensur Suljovic. He will have learned from that and will be looking to bounce back as we head towards the Worlds. Anderson is a former semi finalist in 2014, and i think he can take advantage of a kind draw to make it again. He is 1/1 various to make it to the semis again.
My final selection is for a 9 darter to be hit. We didnt see it in the Matchplay but several players went close. The format of this tournament makes it more difficult, however last year James Wade and Robert Thornton but hit 9 darters in the same match! Brendan Dolan has also hit a 9 darter in Dublin, and for small stakes this bet gives you a run for your money in every leg played in this tournament. It is 9/2 William Hill.
Outright

WADE TO WIN 16/1 E/W (small stakes)

NFL Sunday Money line Treble
I stated pre-season that it is best to wait a couple of weeks before putting up accas on the NFL. We need to see some form and I said that normally in the first couple of weeks, we get injuries to key players, and this season is no different. Tony Romo, Dez Bryant, Jordy Nelson, Terrell Suggs, Arian Foster, Julius Thomas and Drew Brees etc, are just a few of the star names, there are many more on defence that are just as key.
Last week I landed a 13/10 fourfold, and I am taking a ML treble this week, with teams I think should win starting with the third highest offence in the league the Atlanta Falcons facing Houston. Yes they have JJ but outside that their offence is struggling to put up more than 20pts. In the Georgia Dome, the real JJ in this match isn’t Watt, its Jones. Matty Ice gets the job done.
Cincinnati are my second choice facing Kansas. The Chiefs finally scored a passing touchdown last week, but Rodgers took their secondary apart, a short turn around and another road game against Andy Dalton who has thrown 8tds in 3 games so far this season isn’t ideal. I side with the Bengals.
To complete the treble is the San Diego Chargers. They host the Cleveland Browns. I pointed out couple of years ago on the main thread an away game in the NFL, isn’t like the Premier league, this isn’t hoping on the coach for a 30min drive up the M1, you can go coast to coast, through different time zones. I think that is one reason I can see the Chargers winning tonight. WR Keenan Allen is playing well and with the likes of Phillip Rivers, Melvin Gordon and Danny Woodhead, I can see them putting up enough points to win the game, as I think they can stuff the run up the middle.
ML TREBLE

19/1O William Hill
Good luck if your having a bet
Like the picks chief. Think Melvin Gordon gets his breakout game today. Still waiting on Luck myself. Took my bets Tuesday afternoon and then his shoulder news came out Tuesday evening. Bad timing. Liking the AJ Green TD @ 10/11 @ WillHill with the Larry Fitz Wincast @ a big 2/1 for the Cards with the same firm for the night game. 16 or so hours of NFL. Feels like Christmas haha
I think if the Colts weren’t playing Houston on Thursday Luck would go tonight, they may save for that game. I wouldn’t be surprised if he played and then got took out and saved for Thursday. They need Luck more against the Texans than the Jags at home.
Didn’t realise they had a TNF game next mate but I hope you’re right. Be out myself most of the day so will only catch the first quarter or so of the London game. Good luck mate and hope we’re praising the winners thread later this evening.
I said above I took these Tuesday with the news of Colts turnover machine Andrew Luck nursing a shoulder injury and all week the markets have been suspended, and it won’t be sometime until game time before we know if he will start. I’ll admit I have no clue how back up QB Matt Hasselbeck will perform if he gets the nod over Luck. But there are a few upsides if he does. 1. Surely he can’t turn the ball over as much as Luck has over the first 3 games? 2. He has an extensive career in the NFL with over 200 games under his name which involves playoffs and a Super Bowl appearance. Finally at 3. He could be coming up against the Broncos, but he isn’t, and luckily its the Jacksonville Jaguars on the road who have one of the worst road record in recent years, were blown out in New England last weekend, and have a lot of injuries on offense and defense. A downside? He’s 40 so probably doesn’t have the arm to send it deep down the field, or the legs to scramble from the oncoming pass rush. The Colts offensive line has been awful so far this season but still have one some of the best depth at the skill positions in the NFL. I think if Luck doesn’t start they’ll have the game plan to take it to the Jags which will be similar to what we’ve seen from the Broncos and Peyton Manning, with a heavy dose of Frank Gore.
You can’t take these picks now as markets are still suspended at 365 but if you check tomorrow and the spread is anything under -7.5 for the Colts then you’ll know Luck won’t be starting and you can take these picks at your own risk. But me being me got on early and now its too late. I still think with the weapons they have they can get the job done, and at the end of the day it’s only by a field goal. A big division game with the Titans on a bye and a tough game for Houston in Atlanta, the Colts could really do with the W which could be a big part of whether they’ll be playing in January.

My early Nfl tips and hopefully going to go 4-0 with my Nap
NFL Sunday 6pm
Philadelphia Eagles at Washington Redskins
PHILADELPHIA EAGLES
to score over 24.5 points 5/6 NAP Bet365
PHILADELPHIA EAGLES -3 5/6 NB Bet365
My bold prediction is I am expecting Philadelphia to score 38+ points this weekend and to win by 20+ points
So hopefully my Nap will be up at halftime
I too think the Chargers will have enough to beat the woeful Browns but it won’t be as easy as it should be. The Oline mess continues in San Diego where we will be starting three new offensive linemen from the starters last week, two of which might be from the practice squad. So although Gordon has looked better with each week, the running lanes might not be there for him against a decent front 7 of the Browns. I expect a lot of quick, short passing slants and crossing routes from Rivers to get the ball out quickly so PR isn’t near killed like he was last week. If this all happens then Keenan Allen will again be a big target and could go over 100 yards for the third time in 4 games. San Diego really need to get him and Stevie Johnson the ball in space to win the game.
My treble for tonight
Eagles -7.5
Packers -13.5
K.Allen Over 80.5 yards
Almost 13/1
Anyone got a tip for the early Jets/Dolphins game? It’s the only game I can watch due to time difference in Oz.
It’s a difficult one to call, not least because it’s on neutral ground in a country thousands of miles away from home and playing at a time their bodies just aren’t used to. No doubt the Jets have made a strong start whilst the Dolphins have been disappointing after an off season spending spree. Unfortunately for them Suh has been a non-factor so far and I fancy the Jets on the h/c but in all honesty I’m steering clear money wise.
As a fun bet I would try Marshall anytime and Jets win by 7-12 @6/1 but that would be very small stakes
Total touchdown at 4.5 (10/11 @ 365) in the Jets Dolphins game, the under is something that stands out to me.
Jets will stick to what they have always done, ground and pound so Fitzpatrick don’t have to throw too much. Firstly, this is gonna take time of the clock, but also, I am not sure they will have too much success against a very good defense on paper, albeit, they haven’t really performed at the level they were expected to.
Tannehill has looked good so far this season, but I am not sure how he will cope with Jets defense who has definitely been one of the better defenses in the NFL this season in my opinion. With Revis taking away one side of the field, and Todd Bowles creative blitzes, I think Tannehill will be forced out the pocket on many occasions, and if the Jets CBs can keep with the Dolphins WR, this could help keep the total TDs down.
Morning guys, got training in an hour’s time, so I haven’t got the amount of time that I wish to have to study the games that are on today. Gonna try something almost Ryan Allen esque but without the long reasoning… Hopefully this will get some positive responses though.
Bets that I think are likely to be winners:
Jets – Dolphins: Total TDs under 4.5
Colts – Jags: Colts minus anything up to 7 (regardless of starting QB) , Frank Gore’s rush yards over 60-75 (depending on line)
Falcons – Texans: Falcons win, Falcons minus 2.5 / 3, Falcons over 26.5
Bills – Giants: Bills win, Bills minus 2.5 / 3, Giants under 19.5
Panthers – Bucs: Panthers win, Panthers minus 3.
The aim of this is just to spark some discussion from everyone to see which bets are the ones most worthy of backing.
Rugby World Cup Pool A
England not to qualify
6/4 Paddy Power Betfair
WON – good old England eh. The amount of money they’ve made me from being sh*t at world cups in the last 16 months is fantastic. Football, cricket, now rugby. I’m not as unpatriotic as it would seem, I’m just taking advantage of bookies pricing England up wrongly at every big sporting tournament. I wish I was this unbiased at betting on arsenal as I lose every time I back us!
BigB. Gores line is 65.5 @ Ladbrokes
Agree with most of those but put off that the Bills are just as bad as the Giants at defending the pass and will be without Watkins and McCoy.
Panthers should win in Tampa but Kuechly still not available. Stewart and Tolbert back in their running game and Greg Olsen the only receiver.
Going to throw a point on this TD acca for interest.
Brandon Marshall – Jets
Greg Olsen – Panthers
Julio Jones – Falcons

The last time they meet in World Cup it was a easy win for Ireland 36-6 in 2011 but this Italian side has improved since then and have Parisse back after injury and is capable of running the show, so the +22.5 for Italy looks generous

Tyler, do you fancy the Colts with that spread or even just straight up? Everyone talks about their offense which hasn’t performed to date but their defense is not actually half bad!
James “the lettuce ” harden afternoon buddy
Big b it’s a tough one , there’s a lot of players probable on the colts wich is why it’s a tight spread and was only -7 when luck was meant to be playing , the same fixture last year had the colts -14.5 and they also meant to have a stronger side than they did last year, hasslebeck is more than capable I’ve seen enough of him but mentioned it yesterday to Jordan im not to sure where he is at as I haven’t seen him throw a ball for a couple years. The colts secondary is the biggest worry if davis is out then I would be very reluctant as bortles can throw the bombs. The colts would have known all week that luck would not have been playing so they would be ready , maybe a simple short game from hasselbeck may actually help the colts though , luck has been erratic with some of the plays he has made this season and I don’t think he’s been healthy since the start of the season tbh. As I said its tough to call and if I had to pick I would go Colts but I would keep a close eye on who is out or who is playing leading up to the game
If gore gets going though the colts could run away with it , the jags defence is quite bad and if hasselbeck gets any sort of offense going the jags will struggle playing catch up. I think frank gore might be the key to the result
Chief, any tips on the darts tonight mate?
Max, apologies mate just seen your post, busy day of action and with such a short format, left the darts alone as my daily pot was being on the NFL. May wait till round two unless something takes my fancy. Bunting I saw was on the 9darter and MVG through :)
Attila, they have been all season…
Tyler I’m watching this game cursing Hasselbeck left right and center. Missing passes all over the place.

Jordan just seen he’s 11/20 that’s not good enough, gore is not backing him up either 8 carries for 6 yards. Hopefully they get over the line though
Gore up the middle, no gain, Gore to the right, no gain, Gore to the left, no gain. Grrr…

Nick you sound surprised?
Eagles play another shocking half of “football” if you can call it that ! Useless bunch of idiots !
Did someone not tip them ? CLASSIC ! Lol
BRING TEBOW BACK!
BigB we’ll have no blasphemy on Sundays please :)
Forget about tebow ! Is this kicker pissed or what !??
Josh Norman is unreal
Ahaaha poor Tebow, even across the pond and still on one rates him aha.
Having an absolute mare with my nightmare with my 50p anytime touchdown scorer trixies… Newton, Julio Jones, Odell and AJ green:(
Haha I’ve not been in the game long enough to know his consistency but thought he should have at least been on the practice squad.
He was anything but consistent haha but he does seem like a good bloke to be fair though, and what he did in college was astonishing albeit in what was a star-studded florida team! Have you watched any of his documentaries Jordan?
On a side note, are you still watching the Colts game? Are Colts worth backing with a few pennies at all?

Minnesota Vikings @ Denver Broncos
Peyton Manning O242.5 Passing Yards – @ 5/6 PaddyPower
Now Peyton isn’t the youngest of QB in this league but this line is low. Coming of a dodgy start at home to the Ravens this O line has improved. Peyton threw for 256 and 324 at both Chiefs and Lions to bring Denver to 3-0 for the season. It’s taken a few weeks but this new looking O line are looking stronger and stronger and especially with home field advantage at mile high.
The Vikings on the other hand averagely give up 243 passing yards per game. Matthew Stafford and Philip Rivers both passed this target in the last 2 weeks and the only person stopped is Colin Kappernick (no real surprise there after his efforts last week).
This bet is helped even more so by Ronnie Hilman and CJ Anderson in capability to get the run game going with neither passing 41 yards in the first 3 games.
Oh f***********cking hell. Gore with another fumble on the goal line. Jags only other TD was off a fumble in the Colts half.
Yeah I’ve seen the Tebow Football Life mate.
Lol BigB. Colts. No. Fingers literally bleeding now.
Was gonna do a double with the Colts and raiders, but left the Colts out as you suggested and took the Raiders single instead, fingers crossed!
Davis with an absolute tw*t penalty for a 29 yard gain for the Jags on 3rd and 11. 3 minutes to go….
St Louis Rams @ Arizona Cardinals
Chris Johnson O50.5 Rushing Yards – @ 20/23 Coral / Boylesport
Starting the season at number 2 to Andre Ellington, this guy has grabbed his chance and with Ellington inactive once again today Johnson yards are very low. He had 20 and 22 carries in the past 2 weeks and rushing for 72 and 110 in these games @ Bears and v 49ers. He averages 4.2 yards per carry and through the first 3 games totalling 219 yards from 52 carries.
The Rams are not the strongest against the run and averagly give up 122.7 rush yards per game this season. Lynch(Sea), Jones(Was), Morris(Was) and Bell(Pit) have all passed 50 yards in these games.
Jordan, do you ever cash out?
I have wee stake on the Raiders when they were 2 down… they just got a field goal, making it 20-19 with like 2 minutes to go in the 4th… squeaky bum time or cash out haha can’t decide
BigB. Never. Cash out does not exist in my betting world. Would rather lose a bet than cash out. Sounds crazy but have been burned too many times by it.
Jags are going to win this….
NFL
Green Bay Packers @ San Francisco 49ers
* Colin Kaepernick over 40.5 rushing yards
Kap is under pressure atm but one thing you can’t take away from him is ability to run the ball. He has rushed for 140 yards in his opening 3 games and is up against a packers defence wich has been poor in stoping mobile QBs. It seems to be a big weakness on this Packers defence , I watched Russel Wilson rush for 80 yards against the pack and even Alex smith and Jay Cutler had success on the run wich is not said very often. I expect to see him moving a lot as he has been struggling throwing the ball maybe even get a TD.
Literally f*ckig shaking with anger at Gores fumble. 10 seconds left. Jags in field goal range. Barely.
Jesus christ we’re going to OT in Indianapolis. Nerves are done…
Final one tonight
Green Bay Packers @ San Francisco 49ers – James Jones Anytime Touchdown Scorer – Evens @ Skybet / Coral
Jones has had an electric start to the season scoring in each of his first 3 games, totalling 4 touchdowns in total this season. The 49ers have given up 4 touchdowns in the past 2 games to WR. Averaging 4 receptions per game I fancy one of them to be caught in the redzone
Jordan get a smoke down u buddy haha
hopefully colts get through, not watching the game mate but it sounds tense, I’ve been laughing at andy Reid’s decision sto take FGs when 14 points and then again being 17 points down in the 4th with around 10 minutes to go. Terrible play calling
So what do we think people? Ward to lose 2-0 to JPSmith @ 11/10??
Tyler I literally can’t bare watching this. Jags on their second possession in OT now. 3rd and 8…
W*nkers. Game over. 1st and 10 Colts 45. FFS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Night gents.
Colts still alive!
Colts still alive!
Colts in the redzone
Colts win lol
Guess the trick is to not watch the game and your team will win haha.
Well done Jordan on another winner mate!
Lol I guess he doesn’t even know they have won yet.
Kap already got 12 yards on first drive good start
Bless the man, he was raging haha.
Tyler you watch the Packer’s game? I missed the train and might jump on the handicap of around 10… shouldn’t be too difficult against the 49er’s right? What do you think pal, you were prety spot on with the Colts earlier aha
Big b im watching the cards/Rams but i would expect the pack to blow them away. Unless kap tears them up on the run I don’t think there’s much hope for them and even if he does get Goin it’s too much too ask against Aaron Rodgers in MVP form.
Just heard lynch is out Tomorow so thats a big blow to my treble
Yeah same, Cards/Rams are making a good watch. Think I will lump it on the Packers minus 10 and hope for the best..
Ye it’s hard to say when not watching the game but -10 seems about right , anything higher might be a bit too much as the packers always seem to take it easy after a big lead
Kap already has 41 yards so my bets in already not even half time yet
You are picking a lot of winners Tyler, that is impressive bud!
Have you given any more thoughts more playing the sport then?
Errrrm. I’ve just seen the highlights on Sky Sports of Vinatieri kicking the game winning field goal? How hahahahaha
Evening Guys, what a day of sporting drama its been in the football, and the points continue in the NFL. Colts scrap home and as I said last night, Luck being held back for the Texans on Thursday. My prop tips and anytime scorer are all in the same game.
Dallas Cowboys & New Orleans Saints
To start with I think this will be a high scoring contest and I think Dallas are worth taking on the +3pt handicap at evens, as I think they could win this game. Instead I am taking Dallas +4.5 and over 40.5pts at 13/10 Coral. I also like Dallas to score O2.5 touchdowns at 10/11 Bet365. WR Terrence Williams came up with two big drops last week to stall drives, if he holds on this week then Dallas can march down the field on this D.
My main prop is Dallas RB Joseph Randle, who seems to have won the job over Darren McFATeden. Dallas were running all over Atlanta last week, then in the second half decided to abandon the run. If anyone can explain that, I would love to hear it.
Randle has carried the ball 14, 18 and 16 times this season, for 87yds 51yds and 65yds. He ran in for three touchdowns last week before they abandoned the run, this week he faces the Saints front 7 who have given up 378yds on the ground. Randle will carry it for 15-20 times he need to average 4.5yds approx to bring his prop up. His line is set at 66.5yds and I can see him going for O80yds if they stick to the run. It is 10/11 Ladbrokes and he is my anytime scorer at 11/10 William Hill.
My second prop is the opposite RB Mark Ingram. He couldn’t run against the Arizona Cardinals in the desert but is starting to become the Saints most potent offensive player. He ran for 50yds against the Bucs and 53yds against a really good Panthers D. At home in the Super dome, I can see Ingram being a big factor in the run and pass game. His line looks on the low side at 54.5yds rushing at 5/6 Paddy Power.
Anytime Scorer
RANDLE 11/10

RANDLE O65.5yds 10/11

Good luck if your having a bet
Hi Chief – Like the look of your selections, cant argue with any of your logic, thinking along the same lines – best of luck and hope we are on the right track
Rodgers putting on another QB clinic in Santa Clara. James Jones looks to be getting another 100+ receiving game.
Jordan looks like the cardinals are doing us over mate
So with the Colts making me sweat through OT its now the Cardinals trailing at home with Larry Fitz of all people fumbling on 3rd down after a 22 yard gain. Be nothing short of luck if I pull through today.
On a little double with sd chargers and cardinals, not quite going to plan
On a little double with sd chargers and cardinals, not quite going to plan
And have sd last leg on a Treble so ffs come sort it out
Turnovers the killers Danny mate. Palmer threw an INT going deep at some point too. Still a one possession game.
Any thoughts on the Lions v Seahawks later….Seahawks -9.5????
Mr H,
If you put any bets down on that game, bare in mind that Marshawn won’t be playing in the game. Which might set up for Jimmy Graham to get more touches.
Ahh well with little football due too international week it will give Mr something too look forward too through the week. Waiting on the chargers for the first leg of a double but it’s swinging back and forth with nobody really making a claim too get a sizable lead
Not till Tuesday morning Mr H…
Single
Arizona cardinals -3.5
1 point going goodnight
Fitzgerald and cards win
1 points also at serious risk
Cardinals and sd chargers double
2 points at risk
Sd chargers win on chiefs Treble returns 19.04 Profit
Looking like 3 points loss, need a big turnaround.
That fumble by Fitzgerald punished by a decent td
Haha, I could run through that Lions front 7 :)
Was also on Phili over 33.5 and a separate -3 which got destroyed within touching distance of the whistle.
Also a j green no td was a shame
Onwards
Could be worse Dave, could have 9.76 points waiting on the Cardinals win for a possible return of 27.68. Need Broncos to win and Packers cover -2.5 still though.
Going to be a tense last quarter
Fuming with that ref call, that’s Arizona ball in a vital position.
Ffs
Away Day ML (small stakes)
CAROLINA
OAKLAND
6/4 LOST
Small stakes but a loss is a loss, cover was available when Oakland led going into the final minutes but wasn’t around to advise it.
Someone care to explain how the Cardinals haven’t came out with the ball there!?
Why can they not challenge that play!?
Jordan – Fingers crossed bud
Big 15 coming up
Thanks Mr Pereira haha
On a side note a Boca 2nd goal would be nice
3rd and 2 on the St Louis 11. JUST RUN THE EFFING BALL!
We will have no soccer talk on this thread David unless it’s MLS hahaha
AP with a huge run on 4th and 1 to take it home! Still far from home and dry now. Going to need a skin graph by the morning.
Phillips must have really poor personal hygiene as he was wide open in the endzone there. I love a good play action call
There’s the killer blow
Not at all Elston but its not helping matters.
Ouch that td hurt, here’s hoping
The f*cking calls being made by some of these coaches. All out blitz on 3rd and 6 in the red zone. Just f*ck off. Not having this sh*t again.
Viks tie it up from a 2nd Manning INT. Woohoo :(
I’ll have a heart transplant to go with the skingragh please.
Can’t see them clawing their way back in to this Jordan! Also, do you back NBA? Can’t remember if it was you or not who used to post quite a few winners last season??
Off to bed – cannot see this happening, so will presume it’s going to lose.
St Louis Rams @ Arizona Cardinals
Arizona Cardinals over 25 team points 10/11 @ Ladbrokes *LOST*
Aye I do mate.
Big 3rd down stop from pat pete
All on Carson Palmer. Field goal will do please. Broncos in field goal range on 3rd and 6 in the 2 minute warning. The most back and fourth rollercoaster ride ever today.
Terrible by Palmer
F off chargers, done again by a late td
Well that was the worst f*cking set of calls ever. You’ve got two yards on 2 f*cking down. RUN THE BALL!
Palmer buckles
Blimey sd chargers just sneaked the win
2 easy 1st downs he should have made there
A tale of two FGs, my small stakes away double was beat, but my main acca came up again at 19/10. Danny Woodhead was a beast in this game.
ML TREBLE
ATLANTA
CINCINNATI
SAN DIEGO
19/1O WON
Onto the main game now and my main props.
Sack Arians and get me in there ffs.
Tyler am I right though? 43 yard line on 2nd down with 2 yards and you waste 3 plays by throwing it?? I don’t get it.
Can’t believe they didn’t get in position to take the field goal

Preseason nba is currently playing I take it nobody cares …
Na not a chance Aye Right. Limited minutes for all the big stars.
Those games must have been back and FORTH for you to needs skin GRAFT
Lol.
Jordan I have no idea what they were doin, didn’t even try to run the ball , they knew the Rams were gonna bring the house a running draw would have got them nice yardage. Also have no idea why he was looking so far downfield I seen fitz open twice in those 3 plays.
That really hurt. That drive was a 12.92 profit or a 14.76 loss. No shame in my totals though. Even money through week 4.

Any tips for the Cowboys and saints match lads?
I don’t now that much about American football but how did they not get into a position for the field goal.
Refs call on the fumble was a disgrace as well
And Boca juniors not scoring 2 just finished me off
Cheers for the Treble chief, never in doubt lol
Right let’s look at the next one
What is this grammar school?
Dave, not a clue mate. There was plenty wrong in drives in that last quarter but the Cards let the Rams score that TD far too easily in my eyes.
Tyler was looking at Palmer so didn’t see Fitz. Not sure if I want too haha
Jordan – so close to a decent pay out, but no loss is always good.
@thechief, thanks for that ML treble. rollercoaster ride with the chargers!!! after 2 easy early winners. nice 1
@jordan, very unlucky 2nite mate. almost a full house & it shudda been. savage consistant picking. any thoughts on saints cowboys best bet
Aye Right the chief has posted some bets on the previous page. Fancy Cole Beasley yards but it would be a guess. 40.5 @ Stan James. Going to leave it myself and just relax for once today.
Cheers WA really gutted to be fair. I think chiefs Randle TD is a good pick mate but I’m not on it myself.
Just 1 from 3 from the late games. Chris Johnsons yards were set horribly wrong with injury to Ellington and he delivered. Jones comfortably got the yards but unfortunately went with the touchdown! Onto the final game today.
Dallas Cowboys @ New Orleans Saints
Jason Witten O55.5 Receiving Yards – @ 4/5 Bet365
Late game this week and I like the look of Wittens yards, he hasn’t blown away the league with his yards this season but 3 games and has 6, 7 and 8 receptions with 65, 56 and 60 yards respectively is a consistent start.
What makes it more appealing is the Saints defence against TE. Last week they gave up 134 yards to Greg Olsen. Week 1 they also gave up 82 yards to TE Darren Fells
Will also be on Randles yards selected by chief
NFL
* NY Jets + 7.5 (WON)

Chief im on randles yards with you looks good to me
Jordan unlucky buddy should have had a full house there , terrible play calling let that down
Cheers Tyler well done with your bets mate. Good luck on Randle.
Jordan it was simply so unlucky mate I watched the game and they should have been getting into field goal position to win it
cheers jordan, yeah il go with thechief’s Randle bet. Hopefully he breaks thru a few tackles early & takes it to the house, so i can get an earlyish nite!!! Cmon d Boys
Dave, Cheers mate. Never in doubt not with a 2 minute offence to run but to jump offside is plain daft.
WA, cheers mate, I expected all three to be fairly comfortable winners, but fair play to the Browns, to go across country and play like they did. Got home in the end though.
Vincent Jackson going for 147 yards , some Antonio Brown sh*t that
Cheers Danny. That one will hurt until next week. 3 plays to get 2 yards and you throw it every time. Cards offensive coach doesn’t play Madden. Draw or half back screen at least :) Sent you an email bud.
Oh I have just replied I didn’t see it mate I think my phone is playing up
Chief, didn’t see all of your bets but you obviously had a few winners so well done mate. United lose 3-0 and I lose all my NFL profit so far in one weekend. Heartbroken haha, good luck with Randle boys hope it goes for 120.
@ thechief, i had 4 selections picked and once i saw ur ml treble i jumped all over it. my other pick was gonna be the bills, i thought they wud beat up Eli, but thank f#&k, i only did ur treble. thats why it always pays to follow the best tipsters on this forum. u, jordan, picksix & lee are always the guys i check after i quickly check the ML’s.
Jordan, just the treble and a small stakes away double which I posted last night, got bets on this cowboys game which I think they could upset the odds. Cheers mate.
WA, cheers mate I know a lot of experts in the US fancied the Bills, they just had to many injuries for me.
jeeny i was typing my post when i saw the big run & i thought it was Randle & i thought he was going to the house!!, I leapt off my Lazyboy!! only for it to be Dunbar. Dang!!anyways its 12yrds for randle early… & Dunbar shud go relax for awhile!!! ha ha.
WA I mentioned about the Bills having Watkins and McCoy out and that seemed to really hurt Taylor on offense. He only had 10 yards passing at HT but somehow finished with 270 odd. At least I did something right haha
Looks like Brees’ arm is ok. Absolutely firing out those passes.
Yeah jordan, McCoy was a big loss 4 d bills but also Eli mustve found Peytons 2006 QB notes about how NOT to throw an interception. by now he normally has the leading intercptions thrown!!!!!!
Ye chief well done on the treble buddy
Winner I thought the same lol I didn’t see randle come of the field and only noticed it was Dunbar wen he got brought down
WA and amazingly Peyton threw more than him today haha
TD that has to be
Picksix, cheers mate, I was like the rest of you guys I though Randle had broke through. Good first Quarter its flown by. Lets hope Dallas convert this drive
There we go chief ,was never gonna stand that he was over
Surely that’s a TD?
cmon dat was a td
yes yes yes thechief u beauty
Well in chief.
broke the plane that’s a TD :)
thanks jordan too for also advising following thechiefs Randle TD tip. i rest my case with yee lot. tremendous knowledge of d game.
