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.

AFL Round 16 2017 Results

With round 16 done and dusted it’s time for the AFL round 16 2017 results. Lets have a look at the AFL round 16 2017 results and then I’ll give you a little roundup on my thoughts of the AFL round 16 2017 results.

As you can see things started off really well. Fortuna got the first 5 of her AFL tips right. The first one she got wrong was the St. Kilda vs Richmond game. I’m sure a lot of tipsters would have tipped the Tigers to win that game. Who would have thought that the Saints would blow them out of the water with a resounding 67 point win! According to FoxSports it was all due to Alan Richardson’s ‘coaching masterstroke.’

There’s no doubt in my mind though that the Saints deserved that win. They went all out and played a solid four quarters of footy.

Then there was the North Melbourne vs Fremantle game. That game was always up in the air as far as tipping goes. The fact that Freo won just shows they threw themselves into the game more. North Melbourne’s problem was they let them get too far ahead earlier on in the game. So much so they couldn’t peg them back and lost by only 4 points. Best write up on this game, The Roar.

Finally, the last woeful tip belonged to the West Coast vs Port Power game. I really thought West Coast would win this game but it wasn’t to be. The Power flipped the switch on in the last quarter and stormed in as resounding winners. AFL.com reckons there are important talking points about that game.

Unfortunately getting three wrong isn’t enough to win Sportsbet’s Million Dollar Tipping. According to Sportsbet ‘FIVE superstars managed to nail the perfect round, picking all 9 winners and landing bang on the margin. That means they share the $5000 prize. I reckon $1000 isn’t a bad reward for getting all your tips right in AFL round 16 2017 results.

As for me, once again I got one bet right and one wrong, as you can see in last weeks post.

How did you go with your AFL round 16 2017 results?

AFL Round 15 2017 Results AFL Tipping Slump

All I can say about the AFL Round 15 2017 results is that it looks like our tipping slump is back again. Man what a tipping fiasco! I was hoping to improve on the round 14 results. I certainly didn’t expect the AFL Round 15 2017 results to go backwards by so much. What a load of bullshit. OK, lets have a look at the AFL round 15 2017 results.

If you read the round 15 tips post you’ll notice that I place two bets, one with Bet365 and the other with William Hill. The reason for that was so I could get the best odds. On of the positives of joining more than one online betting site. The first bet was on the Melbourne vs Sydney game. I really expected Melbourne to win. The ABC called it a surprisingly good win for Sydney. Sydney is now one game out of the eight.

Round 15 Controversy: The most controversial event of round 15 would have to be Bugg letting one go at Mills four minutes into the game ending the rest of Mills’ game. This put Sydney down a man and one wonders if in a situation such as that the offending player should also sit out the rest of the game. Certainly would make them think twice before lashing out in such a fashion.

The other bet was on the Gold Coast vs Nth. Melbourne game. Luckily that was a win for me. With one win and one loss for the week I’m down 75 cents. All in all I’m pretty happy with that.

Apart from the my win the other highlight of round 15 would have to be the Crows beating Carlton. Port’s loss put a two game buffer between the two teams. Hopefully the Crows can keep ahead of the Power, I would have to fall behind our dreaded foes.

For the best rundown of the round 15 games I don’t think you can go past the Roars’ article.
