As you know I always enter Sportsbet’s Million Dollar Tipping competition so I have a chance at winning $5,000. Well, it sort of sucks all the excitement out of it when you get the first of your tips wrong.

I don’t know about you but I call that first round of the AFL round 19 results an upset. Sure as hell didn’t think that Hawthorn would put off a win. But win they did. Not by much mind you, but a win is a win and the ABC reckon it keeps Hawthorn finals hopes alive. I don’t know if I would go that far because they’ve been all over the place this season.

Then there was the embarrassing moment when Port Power supporters gave up on their club and started leaving the grounds early. As Michelangelo Rucci stated, ‘You should always stay until the end of the siren’. Wankers, they missed the best part of the whole game, coming off with a win.

And then there was that insane Collingwood vs Adelaide Crows game. Collingwood is now the eighth team to lose a game after leading by 50 points in the third quarter. Oh well, at least Sportsbet punters who backed Collingwood came off with a win. I’m talking about their promotion where you automatically win when your team leads by 24 points, even if they lose. How cool is that?

It’s good to see the Crows on top of the ladder. Hopefully they can maintain that position giving them a good shot at the finals.

Last week was a losing bet week for me. I’m hoping I can turn that around in round 20.

Man, I was so looking forward to a great week of AFL tipping. As you can see below, the AFL round 18 2017 results started off OK until the Melbourne vs Port Power game.

Trust Port Power to be the first one to screw things up for us. That was definitely a game they should have won but unfortunately they were asleep the first half. It wasn’t until the second half that someone decided to flip the switch to turn the power on, but by then it was way too bloody late.

As you can see from this article it was all about the Demons! The Power hardly got a mention until nearly the end of the article, but then when you play like shit, that’s all you deserve.

At least the Crows played like this was the win they had to have. They’ve finally broken the 14 year old hoodoo I spoke about in a previous post. Pyke spoke about the fierce contest but I’m sure everyone who watched that match saw how brilliantly the Crows stood up against the Cats! The Cats threw everything at them and were always in their faces but the Crows finally stood up the them and gave better than what they got.

And what about Sloane? Was he a bloody marvel or what? Lets hope he can keep it up.

Too bad we will lose Betts in the Collingwood clash due to having his appendix removed but fingers crossed that he will be back in the next Showdown.

See what the Roar had to say about the Richmond vs GWS Giants game. They figured it was going to be a close game and that Richmond should win. Looks like they were right.

The Collingwood vs West Coast was always going to be a close game, but it was still one that I thought West Coast could win. Unfortunately it wasn’t to be. Check out what Nine WWOS thought of that game.

As for the Carlton and Brisbane game? Read how Brisbane managed to hold off the late Carlton comeback?

The AFL round 18 2017 results just goes to show why teams have to play four quarters of footy if they expect to play finals.

How did you go with your AFL round 18 2017 results?

As far as the betting goes, you’ll notice from my last post that the Sportsbet wager turned out to be a winner whereas the William Hill one didn’t.

AFL Round 17 2017 Results

There was a slight improvement with this weeks AFL Round 17 2017 Results as Fortuna tipped 7 out of the nine. That’s one better than the round 16 results but still 2 short of a perfect score. This brings Fortuna’s running total for round 17 to 87. How does that compare to your tipping results?

Before discussing the AFL Round 17 2017 Results let’s see exactly how Fortuna went.

Unfortunately for me Fortuna stuffed up on the very first game, St. Kilda vs Essendon. This was particularly disappointing because it was the first leg of my Sportsbet multi! As it turns out Sportsbet must have ended their promotion where they would refund your money on 4+ multi’s as it was the only leg I got wrong and there was no refund. My fault for not checking to see if that promotion was still running. Oh well, shit happens.

Who would have though that Essendon would have won this game, especially after St. Kildas previous performance against Richmond. You can check out the full match coverage and results here.

Fortuna’s other stuff up was the Gold Coast vs Collingwood game. According to Foxsports the Magpies did it all for Buckley. That’s a really nice thought but I personally feel they were just lucky. Why wait all that time before finally performing for their coach. If they really had any respect for Buckley they should have been playing real footy a lot sooner than the round 17 match.

Still, I will accept any improvement in Fortuna’s footy tipping. I’m still hoping she will pull out a perfect score soon.

Another great positive to the AFL round 17 2017 results is the Crows win against Melbourne. That win puts them at top of the ladder but they’re hanging on by the skin of the teeth. They need some really good wins to secure that spot. Go the Crows.
