So the bet of the day is clearly Essendon +34.5 @ 10/11, no? I mean really people..anyone who's anyone in the world of Aussie rules football will be filling his boots with those kinds of prices on offer. I don't care how good Hawthorn think they are, I don't care how good David Wannogga-Nogga or William T. Goolereroolerong might be, Essendon are no way 34 points worse.

I think in any sport where the teams are wearing shorts that small, anything can happen and the bookies are showing no respect to the Bombers with that handicap. Have they not seen Gary Koolerooo this season?

He's awesome and with his complete dislike of Hawthorns, in fact anything prickly, they'll be no quarter asked or given. I know we're not playing for sheep stations here, but the bookie who priced this one up must be a flaming galah.

On a more serious gambling note, I may also have a few shillings on Tartan Bearer for the Derby and most definitely will be having plenty on Valentino Rossie to win the Catalunya MotoGP race tomorrow.

Local dudes Danni Pedrosa and Jorge Lorenzo both crashed yesterday in practice. Lorenzo is out and little Danni is in shit state physically. Casey Stoner is fastest in practice, but he always is, but his Ducati is only fast in a straight line and no match for the Rossi's Yamaha over race distance, speshly when Rossi is in this mood.

Vale has won the last three races, is back to his best and has a cool set of leathers that are supposed to look like the Azuri football kit. So there!
