TooSerious
For those who take it way too seriously
So what do we think? Round about 2300 becomes par this week?
Ablett last week, Barlow this week- injuries are definitely starting to pile up! Hopefully you have the depth/trades remaining!!

Firstly - What. A. Game! RIOLI!!
We had Hawks by 1 (it was on our site - honest) - so not bad and a great start to this week
And last week, did anyone pick Sydney to win at the Cattery or Collingwood to win at Spotless? We certainly didn’t (in fact we didn’t even have them as potential upsets) and thus ended with 7 from 9 Round 16 tips. However with the perfect margin on the Thursday night game we found that still kept us up near the top of our tipping ladders. TipBetPro currently sits just outside the Top 20,000 tipsters on footytips.com.au – not great (certainly well down on previous seasons performance) but not bad either out of more than 500,000 tipsters. Turn over for our Round 17 Tips and a player rank break-down of the Top 8 and potential hurdles to the flag.

ORFFA Round 13 Review – NAIDOC Round
Gundagai Grasshoppers 1225 def by Darraweit Guim Dirigibles 1307
Coach Chris’ gamble to double up in the ruck paid dividends as Ceglar (128) and Nicholls (119) dominated to keep the Blimps finals hopes alive. Walla and Newnes were also good.
Look out if snoz ever figures out he needs a couple of decent defenders. Outside of the terrible backline effort (this lot were shite tbh), it was a pretty good showing from the Hoppers with 8 scores over 90, 7 of which came from a promising group all aged 23 or younger. The Hoppers are on their way, perhaps just not quite as quickly as the coach would like.
Wineglass Bay Packers 959 def by Whitsunday Warriors 1133
Rough day at the office for coach Tracey as the Packers, with exception of the superstar Sloane (114), future star Lynch (123) and Matera (95), stunk it up all over the park. Hipwood continued to show some promising signs but it’s probably room full of mirrors time for the rest.
Two wins in a row now for the enigma known as TiB after a tough first half of the year. JJK (115) was the star for the Warriors with good support from Gibson (104) and Wines (99). A fairly even effort after that but enough to get the job done. Young Lobb (86) looks to be coming along nicely.
Charlies Opening Spelunkers 1108 def by Waikikamoocow Incorrigibles 1292
An easy in for the Cows over an undermanned Spelunkers outfit. While no doubt pleased that McGovern, Hannebery, Mitchell and Sauce Jacobs all cracked the ton, Graeme was probably most pleased with return to form of Hall (94) and Brad Crouch’s first ton in almost 2 years (23 August 2014 was his last one for those playing at home).
el Bandito and his charges were gallant but the efforts of the Bont (140), Jack (123) and Zerrett (129) were in vain as 13 warm bodies just wasn’t enough against solid Cows outfit.

Firstly, I had no idea what Walesy was going on about – gyms, eevees, lapras... I seriously need to out from underneath this rock.
Meanwhile, the BoTW curse is in full effect now – JJ didn’t even crack 70!
It’s really just got to the point where I’m thinking of naming players I don’t like or North Melbourne players to give Brad Scott something else to whinge about…
But I’m not going to do that, after all “if at first you don’t succeed, try going to the AFL for handouts… I mean try, try again”.
So read on to find out who we name as our Buy of the Week this week – if or no other reason, you know to not get him!

So, some scumbag just knocked me out of my gym and dumped a 1400+ Lapras on it.
Rude.
Least I get to evolve my Eevee tonight though. And I've still got that other gym that I had to trespass with the kiddoes to reach- doesn't look like anyone else has been game enough for that yet.
All after lockout of course.
So, how have you all gone? Personally, I've been trolling the streets with my kids hunting electrons, but I heard there was some footy on also!

Another good week of tipping with 5 from 6 and Gold Coast were a nice “50:50” tip. Certainly we’ve found ourselves sneaking back up towards the top of our respective tipping ladders following the Round 12 debacle. We’ll try and focus on games between finals contenders for the remainder of the season and so this week we take a look at the Cats vs Swans and Eagles vs Roos games so turn over for the TipBetPro match previews and all the remaining Round 16 tips.
the Thursday night teams are as follows, can all mods please feel free to update this post when Friday-Sunday teams and 25 man squads get announced ?

I didn’t want to say it, I hoped that if I pretended it didn’t exist that it would just go away, but unfortunately its back… the Buy of the Week curse.
For about the 5th week running a Buy of the Week failed to really perform, with Monty only getting 70 points. Even Trengove got dropped and he was supposed to be a safe bet as a mid-season cash-cow.
Nevertheless, we will keep at it. So read on to find out who we name as our Buy of the Week this week – if or no other reason, you know to not get him!

So, the last bye round AND a federal election. What a time to be alive.
Hopefully you managed to pick up a few snags and avoid Gaz as captain!
Home stretch now. Let us know how you're sitting after these byes kicked our ass. (Or was that just me?)
