AFL Odds: Dane Swan Looks Back
December 24th, 2014 by TJ DilferIt’s quite common to see AFL players offering their opinions of rival players and teams, and you probably wouldn’t take too much notice of that criticism – because it’s very often criticism, and not a lot of it constructive, either – when you’re looking over the AFL odds we’ve got for you at this early stage at the other end of the link there. But when a player like Dane Swan offers a refreshingly honest appraisal of his own work for Collingwood over the 2014 season – and makes a commitment at the same time to Read the rest of this entry »

December 19th, 2014 by TJ DilferThe Giants won six games last season, and they wound up a couple of spots clear of the foot of the ladder. For the 2015 season, the AFL odds at the other end of that link will tell you that they’re a long outside chance to at odds of $101.00 to win the premiership, but a decent-looking $7.00 to sneak into the top eight come the final day of the regular season. It would be their first taste of finals footie, and there’s little doubt that their players – and their fans, of course – will be hungry for that success. But can they make the step up?

December 18th, 2014 by TJ DilferThe Cats are perennial AFL contenders – one of the teams who are going to be there or thereabouts when we get to the business end of the 2015 season, just as they have been in recent years. A look at the AFL odds at the end of the link we’ve got for you there, and you’ll see that the bookies take a similar view.
Much of the success of the Geelong side in recent times has been built on the back of a very sturdy – and very stingy – defensive set-up. It’s a defence that has featured some big (literally) AFL stars, but the careers of the big men who have kept out Geelong’s opponents for years are Read the rest of this entry »

October 2nd, 2014 by TJ DilferAn AFL Finals Series has a way of leaving us breathless, and to be honest a little rest from all the tension could be just what a few AFL fans all around the country need, especially after a season that featured some tight games and more than a few shocks.

October 1st, 2014 by TJ DilferHawthorn are the 2014 AFL Premiers after a decisive win over the much-fancied Swans, and the win marks a very impressive achievement: back-to-back Grand Final wins. It’s surely the sort of achievement that will strengthen the case that says this Hawks side deserves to be regarded alongside the very best – they have shown a consistency throughout the 2014 season that can only have been a pleasure for their fans to watch, and whilst the AFL odds may have been against them, they showed that they have class to spare with a comprehensive victory.
Hawks captain Luke Hodge had a night to remember – his Read the rest of this entry »
