Damn you Zac!

Post: # 765816Post Jewellzy »

Before you hit the reply button ready for flaming, I am referring to the fact that Zac Dawson cost me a chance at a lot of cash when he missed his set shot late in the last quarter on Sunday.

Hanging out at the TAB before the game, I decided to have a bit of a dabble in the exotics of the game. I had $10 on Joey for most disposals, $10 on Kosi for first goal and $10 on St.Kilda to score a behind for first score.

With $18 left on a voucher, I had a quick look at the margin betting. I was certain that the game was going to be an absolute belting in our favour, so imagine my surprise when I saw that Saints between 61-75 was showing the very juicy odds of 26/1.

So I threw the whole $18 on the bet and went to enjoy the game. At the 16-19 minute mark, Kosi kicks his 5th goal to put us 67 points clear. THe bet's safe, right? Wrong.

Two quick one's to the Tigers and all of a sudden I'm barracking for a goal like we're down by 5 points in a grand final. Well you know what happens next. Zac takes a mark in a mirror pocket to where he sealed Carlton's fate two weeks ago, goes back, misses terribly, siren goes and I miss out on trying to recoup the money I spent the Saturday night before.

Oh well.

Anyone else with hits and misses with our boys in the betting world?


The Phoenix Suns and St.Kilda Saints should have at least 5 championships between them since their sudden surge to elite status in 2004.

I had some dough on Goddard to score the first goal, at $26 which I thought was overs. No dice.

My brother stood to collect over a grand if CJ kicked the first goal! :lol:

Speaking of BJ, the guys on the machine before me had some cash on him for most disposals. Not sure how much, but I'm guessing they were smiling afterwards.
