Well done champ

Let's hope this has a flow on effect to everything on here.
Been goin pretty drab lately. We really got to start doing something similar to what we had last year. Come up with a few weekly multi's...

Yeah, we are back in the thick of the season now. Should start posting our 3 levels again- safe, value and I can't remember the third one.

Yeah man, the third level was 'longshot', I believe.

My personal favourite :P

We'll get it cracking again this w/e.

Put a few $$$ on @ $21.00.

"AT FIRST SIGHT" -- Trained by Robert Hickmott 52.5kg in The Melbourne Cup currently in 34th position.

Racing Santander v Real Madrid - Draw @ 5.85
Valencia v Barcelona - Valencia @ 6.75
Multibet @ 39.49
Only put $1 on it for shits and giggles. Just hoping on a Valencia win now.

Just won a 7 leg multi of Belgian Cup Games, paying $2.76. Pretty easy money considering.

Pretty close Mus.

*BUMP*

Got a few various multi's on tonight.

Chelski, Man C, Arsenal, Liverpool, Rangers & Celtic all to win paying $4.52. Looking pretty achievable already.

And my 8-leg favourites multi with Barca, Real, Rijeka, Hajduk, CSKA Sofia, Dinamo Minsk, Lille & Liteks all to win paying $5.01.

Have a 9-leg paying $9.38, which contains Ajax, PSV, M.Haifa, H.Tel Aviv, Olympiacos, Jablonec, Apoel, Rijeka and Hajduk.

Got $5 on each, plus $1 on Gary Cahill to score against Arsenal, and Chelski and N'castle to win paying $21.95

West Ham, Brum & Boro all good value at home paying over $1.50 for the win

Well the Gary Cahill one is dead since he isn't playing.

My A League 11/12 Season Predictions Total 30 Units

Grand Final Winners – 8 Units Melbourne Victory $4.65 @ Centrebet
Melbourne under achieved last year and of course the big news this year is the signing of the one and only Harry Kewell. The other major change for this season is that of the new coach Mehmet Durakovic with Ernie Merrick parting ways with the club last season. The new coach has landed himself with a team packed full of talent which should get plenty of selection headaches throughout the season. Brisbane Roar’s championship winning striker Solorzano will make his debut for the club while club goal scoring legends Archie Thompson and Danny Allsopp will be looking for another good season. Add to this young speedy New Zealander Rojas and you have an extremely lethal attack. Going back into the midfield the quality doesn’t stop. Provided Harry Kewell and Costa Rican Carlos Hernandez stay fit for the season, Melbourne will boast in my opinion the best midfield in the league. Isaaca Cernak from defunct North Queensland has been impressive in trials while the long term Melbourne combination of Brebner, Broxham , Celeski and Pondeljak will bolster the midfield.
The only concern I have for Melbourne is the defence/goalkeeping. Leijer and Vargas are solid defenders however the rest of the defence is fairly inexperienced. This combined with new goalkeeper Velaphi may result in leaking some goals during the season. Although capable of some great saves I’m not impressed with Velaphi as he is often prone to silly mistakes.
Overall Melbourne Victory are a big game club and with this playing roster they should easily take themselves through to the top 4. From here I think they will be best contenders for the Grand Final.

Minor Premiers – 4 Units Adelaide United $7 @ Sportsbet
This is my best value bet for the season. Adelaide have done a stunning job in recruitment this season and I can’t see any way they won’t make the top 4. With a little over 2 weeks out from the season I couldn’t resist these odds at Sportsbet. Other books such as Centrebet have Adelaide as low as $4.50 and most around the $5 mark so I have taken this one while it lasts.
Adelaide have the most potent striker in the league in Van Dijk. He is a guaranteed goal machine. Djite has found himself back at Adelaide to partner Van Dijk after playing in Turkey and at Gold Coast United for the last 3 years and is a proven goalscorer at this level. Adelaide have lost almost half their squad but besides the irreplaceable Flores, have recruited an even better playing roster for this season. Mckain, Vidosic, Caravella, Djite, Dilevski should all come into the starting 11 while it will be interesting to see what import Levchenko has to offer. Between the sticks Adelaide still have one of the top 2 keepers in the league in Galekovic.
I see Adelaide United as an extremely strong unit with no weak spots and I’m confident they can improve on last year’s 3rd place into the number one position this year.

Minor Premiers – 1 Unit Brisbane Roar $6 @ Sportsbet
No team so far in the A League has topped the table two seasons running. If any team can do it, Brisbane will be the ones. Last season, Brisbane’s record season was credited to Ange Postecoglou’s coaching strategy and system. The players adapt to the way the team plays, rather than revolving the team around star players. Last season the high possession and quick, fluent passing build up play by the Roar was superior to the rest of the league. The only hurdle in the way this year is the loss of three crucial players. Barbarousses and Solorzano who netted 23 goals between them are gone and perhaps the biggest loss is that of Club Captain Matt Mckay who was snapped up by Rangers. I’m not 100% confident in the replacements of these players but if proven wrong can’t see any reason Brisbane can’t go back to back.

Wooden Spoon – 3 Units Wellington Phoenix $4.33 @ Sportsbet
One would imagine that the Spoon will be hard fought between Wellington and the Gold Coast this season although past seasons have shown to be unpredictable. I’ve taken this price on Wellington while I can as they have been posted elsewhere as low as $2.50. Wellington’s ownership issues have overshadowed their preseason and they have only just reached the quota of 20 squad players required to start the season. They are a tough side to beat at home but in comparison to the other teams who mostly have improved their roster this season, Wellington’s team sheet is incredibly sparse. The Phoenix will be hoping for an injury free season for striker Paul Ifill to help them stay off the bottom of the table.
Top NSW Team – 4 Units Central Coast Mariners $2.20 @ Sportsbet
In my opinion, Sydney are being hyped up again this season and although the addition of Emerton will definitely see them improve I just don’t think they have the squad or tactics to get them to the pointy end of the ladder. Last season they were deplorable under coach Lavicka. Central Coast on the other hand have bolstered their Grand Final side from last season and have massive depth in the squad. Central Coast have the best defence in the league and have brought in some strong players into their already solid midfield and attack. Newcastle will get some results this season but won’t be at the top end of the ladder. Sydney at $2 is no value and I’m taking the Mariners to finish above them.

Top Goalscorer (Awaiting other bookmakers to post odds)

Sergio Van Dijk 2 Units $5 @ Centrebet
No explanation required. Last season’s Golden Boot winner. Since joining the A League, Van Dijk has scored 45 goals in 80 appearances for Brisbane/Adelaide.

Shane Smeltz 0.5 Units $5 @ Centrebet
Small cover on Van Dijk. When Smeltz is actually busy honouring his A League contracts the goals flow thick and fast. In 74 games since he started with the Phoenix, Smeltz has netted 47 goals which actually eclipses Van Dijk’s record. I’m still not convinced about Perth Glory this season under Ferguson and thus why I’m sticking with Van Dijk for golden boot however it wouldn’t be a surprise if Smeltz takes it.

Ryan Griffiths 0.5 Units $13 @ Centrebet
A dark horse for this season. Griffiths comes back to his hometown of Newcastle after playing with Beijing Guoan for a few seasons. He has shown a consistent ability to score goals and while not at the rate of the better A League strikers he is worth a small stakes punt this season as I think he will provide a majority of Newcastle’s goals.

Top Team Goalscorers

2 Units Shane Smeltz Perth Glory $1.66 @ Centrebet
See above in Top Season Goalscorer

2 Units Paul Ifill Wellington Phoenix $2 @ Centrebet
Paul Ifill is a class player and has scored 20 goals in 51 appearances for Wellington. No other Wellington player comes close to the strike rate and barring injury he will take the prize again this season.

1 Unit Ryan Griffiths Newcastle Jets $2.85 @ Centrebet
See above in Top Season Goalscorer

1 Unit James Meyer Brisbane Roar $7 @ Centrebet
New player out of the Brisbane Premier League for the Roar. At the end of last season he played 3 games for Brisbane and scored 4 goals which earnt him the nickname “supersub meyer”. Brisbane’s trial game yesterday which comprised their youth squad plus Meyer and Danning saw Meyer score all three goals in the 3-0 win. If Albanian striker Besart Berisha doesn’t turn out to be a success, Meyer might just see himself starting for the Roar for the latter half of the season where he has shown he has the ability to put the ball in the back of the net.

0.5 Units Brett Emerton Sydney FC $17 @ Centrebet
While Emerton will be starting the season in the midfield he is known as a versatile player who can play up front and score goals. It has been said that he might be used in different positions around the park during the season and if he is put up front may surprise as top goal scorer for fc.

0.5 Units Thomas Broich Brisbane Roar $7.50 @ Centrebet
With the loss of Barbarousses and Solorzano, Broich has been trialing up front and as attacking midfielder for Brisbane. In my opinion he is the best player in the league and a class above any other player. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if he leads the scoring list at Brisbane now that he will be playing further up the park.

:lol: I thought the same thing. Boro and Brum fail.

Didn't have much success last night.

Leyton fucking Orient, bogey side or what!?
All legs home, except Huddersfield leading at home after 85 mins, 2-0 up, were 1.39 faves pre match, and Orient decide they'll score 2 in the last 5 and level it to cost me $155!
That makes a total of $2k that Orient have cost me in winnings over 2 multi's,
woww.

Anyone else looking at the Brownlow tonight?

I'm thinking...

Highest Votes @ Brisbane - Tom Rockliff @ $5.2
Highest Votes @ Carlton - Marc Murphy @ $4.2
Team of Winner - Sydney $4.9
Winner - Adam Goodes $5.5
Winner - Marc Murphy $20
Top 5 - Dean Cox $5.6

Put $10 on a Vettel/Button quinella last night and it got up paying $3.25. Handy little win.

Funky, I'm on these:

Team of Winner - Sydney - $4.75
Winner - Adam Goodes - $5
Quinella - Judd/Goodes - $4
Trifecta - Judd/Goodes/Swan - $15
Trifecta - Judd/Goodes/Pendlebury - $8.50
Top 3 - Dane Swan - $3.25

$10 on each. :lol:

I went a different direction and slapped $100 each on Judd (@ 2.26) and Goodes (@ 6.2).
Up the Goodesy, content with money back + incentive if Judd gets the gong, happy days!

:d

Ended up going with:
Most Votes in Team - Tom Rockliff
Team of Winner - Sydney
Winner - Goodes
Winner - Pendlebury
Winner (Roughie) - Marc Murphy
Top 3 - Dane Swan

Rocky finished equal first for Brisbane...still counts?

Yeah it should do.

Put a lot of faith in Goodes. :lol: Ah well, just over half my money back.

I've lost almost every bet I've made in the last 2 months, absolutely depressing.
The only thing Dane Swan had going for him when he kept polling (I was spewin every time he polled) was his Mrs, and her tits all but out, dirty fuckers!!

](*,)

Unlucky mate. You'll get back in the winners circle soon. I went through a period exactly like that earlier this year. Don't get foolish, you're experienced and you know what should prove profitable.

Come on, this w/e put up here some tips and we'll talk about them and choose a 4-5 leg multi. Deal? :P

deal.


I just missed out on $140.
Had:
Newcastle
Norwich
West Brom - Fulham draw
Sporting gijon win

Paying 28 to the dollar, had 5 on it

Missed the Gijon leg. :(

Ouch. I always lose when I bet on Sunderland. :lol:

Thanks mate, indeed.

For sure, I'll think up a new and improved system now.
We must all win this weekend!
Let's start contributing some tips for the weekend now, just compile a list of reasonable and well explained bets, and we'll go from there.

It did. Ended up with a 90c Profit. First ever betting profit. WOOOO :lol:

[size=6]The Punter's Punthouse Weekly Super Tips[/size] [size=6]*[/size]New and improved[size=6]*[/size]

This thread will hereby provide punters with the opportunity to contribute, explain, attain, use given tips and knowledge, and hopefully win lots of $$$!

In the lead up to every weekend of sport (deadline 6.30p.m. Friday), people will provide tips and insight into what they feel are the bets to look out for on the upcoming action.
These bets can be divided into 4 tiers:
- Safe/Bankers
- Sensible and Knowledgable
- Value
- Probable Longshots

I will then collate and reallocate all bets provided by contributers into 3 seperate sections which will be used as options for all to use.
3 levels of bet types will be:
Stand-alone bets (ranging only from Safe/Bankers - Value)
Multi/Combo's (Seperating all tiers of bets and placing them into 4-8 legged multi's with a variety of combinations)
& Other bet types (those bets that do not fall under the given categories i.e unique bets, first goalscorers, bets inelligible in multi's, racing...)

This template is a guide only, and will be altered or permanently placed upon feedback.
