Grand Final Countdown - "Shuffle up and Deal!"

Postby trishan » Tue Aug 17, 2010 1:24 pm

The excitement is tangible with just 11 days left before the GF kicks off at the Caulfield Racecourse. Adelaide has hosted the last two GFs and now it's Melbourne's turn to show the South Australians how it's really done. This year will see Jeff Fenech and Annette Melton among the field.

Interestingly two Victorians won the GF in Adelaide so maybe it's time for a South Australian to win on our soil? Time will tell.

Hmm I am really a risk-averse person and taking bets would be illegal anyway lol Play-money bet? Everyone has $250 play money to bet on these markets.

make a market for longest lasting forumer then. i want to spend my last 150 play moneyz on that. :lol:

Also, an over/under for how long fenech will last would be good, and also how many beers garth will drink on the sunday night. :D

if you seriously wanna book some of this, i will take $50 on myself for last longer

nit!!!

if you want, maybe you can set it up seriously.
then we each get 100 points to bet on certain things

each pony up $10, trishan can hold onto it.

person with most points at the end gets the coin

what do you think?



also, last longer for forumers is definitely a good idea.

Will start a new thread for this Ben because it sounds like an awesome idea. I will set the odds and I won't participate myself to ensure its all legit.

I reckon Ben, Jo & Russ will all be playing longer than Matt.

All 100 points on that please.
I'm not perfect. I'm what perfect aspires to become
