AFLW Round 3 2018 Tips

Yep, it’s time for the AFLW Round 3 2018 Tips! I don’t know if you read my 2018 AFLW Round 2 Results, but in case you didn’t, I managed to get three out of the four right. There may be some folk out there who would be happy with a 75/25 result, but I’m not one of them. Nope, I want 100% accuracy, how else am I supposed to win any money?  :tongue_out:

So, let’s get down to business with the AFLW round 3 2018 tips!

My AFLW Round 3 2018 Tips

  • Adelaide Crows vs Western Bulldogs (Norwood Oval)
  • Carlton vs Brisbane (Ikon Park)
  • Collingwood vs GWS Giants (Olympic Park)
  • Fremantle vs Melbourne (Fremantle Oval)

As you can see, Crows fan and all, I didn’t pick the Crows again in my AFLW round 3 2018 tips. Sure, they’re playing at home, but I just don’t think that’s going to be enough to get them over the line. Especially not the way they’ve been playing.

I know a lot of folks out there are tipping Carlton in their AFLW round 3 2018 tips, but I reckon this is the week when they fall apart.

I tossed a coin for the Collingwood vs GWS Giants game. None have won a game this season so it could be anyone’s game. Who do you think will win?

The Demons have been playing exceptionally well with convincing wins, and I think they will be able to win against the Dockers.

OK, let’s see who’s got the best odds 2018 AFLW round 3.

Looking at the table above I’ve decided to place another multi-bet with William Hill as they’re offering the best odds, once again.

When placing the bet with William Hill, I noticed they’ve added a new feature called Price Pump.

What Price Pump does is increase the odds in the punter’s favour. You can see in the image above the before and after activating the Price Pump and final proof of my bet. Something that I always do to show my readers that I actually use the online sports sites that I promote.

AFLW Round 2 2018 Tips

Man, I hate tipping the women, they just haven’t been around long enough to gauge how they’re going to play. Still, I didn’t do too bad with the AFLW Round 1 tips. I reckon 3 out of 4 is pretty good. Too bad the one I got wrong was the one I backed!.  :guns: Let’s hope I do better with the AFLW Round 2 2018 Tips.

AFLW Round 2 2018 Tips

  • GWS Giants vs Carlton – Drummoyne
  • Melbourne vs Adelaide Crows – Casey Fields
  • Fremantle vs Collingwood – Optus
  • Brisbane vs Western Bulldogs – South Pine

I don’t feel comfortable tipping the Crows this week, not with both Erin Phillips and Courtney Cramey being on the sidelines.

I also think that Collingwood is going to have a hard time of it due to the axing of their star forward Mo Hope.

OK, I’ve got my tips squared away, not to check out who has the best odds odd for round 2 of the 2018 AFLW season.

I don’t feel comfortable betting on any of the games this week, so just to be a little different I thought I would take out a multi-bet. A $2 multi will return a healthy $32.46. I also used William Hill to place my bet because their odds proved to be the best this week.

The image above shows how my $2 stake will return $32.46, providing my AFLW Round 2 2018 Tips are spot on that is.  :tongue_out:

 

2017 AFL Grand Final Prediction

2017 AFL Grand Final Prediction

The question of everyone’s lips is who will win the 2017 AFL Grand Final? I’m hoping that it will be a hard fought battle right up until the final siren. That’s what finals footy is all about right? No-one wants to see a one sided game. The best footy is when the win is up in the air right up until the dying seconds of the game. So, what’s the media saying about 2017 AFL Grand Final predictions?

Media Opinion On 2017 AFL Grand Final Prediction

Malcolm Blight tips Adelaide in his article in The Age. According to Blight it will be a hard fought battle that the Crows will just win. OK, he doesn’t actually say that in so many words but he did say ‘just’ win. I just embellished it a little.

The Adelaide Football Club isn’t giving anything away either offering some interesting stats as well as documenting strengths and weaknesses of both teams.

What is really interesting is how the Crows fared in the last five games against Richmond. Stats courtesy of the AFC, previous link.

R6, 2017, Adelaide 21.14 (140) d Richmond 10.4 (64) at Adelaide Oval
R3, 2016, Adelaide 19.14 (128) d Richmond 13.14 (92) at Etihad Stadium
R19, 2015, Adelaide 11.22 (88) d Richmond 8.4 (52) at Adelaide Oval
R21, 2014, Richmond 10.19 (79) d Adelaide 9.15 (69) at Adelaide Oval
R12, 2013, Richmond 16.14 (110) d Adelaide 10.12 (72) at the MCG

It’s interesting to note that the Crows have managed to win the last 3 confrontations, one of which was an away game at Etihad Stadium.

Rippa says it will be a hard fought game but that Richmond will be victorious tipping a 23 point win

My 2017 AFL Grand Final Prediction

Grand Final 2017 Cup

 

Personally I’m hoping for a Crows 2017 Grand Final win but I think, even though most sites are saying the Crows are favourites, I believe the Crows to be the underdogs. Almost everybody I’ve spoken to who aren’t Crows fans are willing the Crows to lose, and I don’t mean just the Power supporters. Then having to play at the MCG where the Tiger army will assuredly out roar the 19th man fan base. Add to that all the other non Crows supporters screaming out their lungs, how are the Crows expected to even hear their 19th man.

Still, I believe the Crows will to win will overcome everything and they enabling them to bring the Grand Final Cup home.

As far as tipping goes, I have no other choice but to tip the Crows to win. Because Bet365 has the better odds I’m using them to place my bet. You can see my wager here.

So, who do you think is going to win the 2017 AFL Grand Final?
