REB’s Rubbish: Round 13

Do you ever get the feeling that several clubs are in complete and utter disarray at the moment? The Saints dropped the axe on Nick Dal Santo and Stevie Milne Read More »

REB’s Rubbish: Round 12

Turning for home and it’s Unsociable Hawk ahead by a nose from Back to Back Cat and Dilligent Dog. Ahead of the pack it’s Teflon Swans and Bye Bye Blackbird fighting it out with Four and Twenty Pie, Golden Roo Read More »

REB’s Rubbish: Round 11

Greetings viewers back in town last week to some degree with seven winners for the round for a commendable (but not all that outstanding) tally of 61 winners for the year. Read More »

REB’s Rubbish: Round 9

What?? We’re playing them AGAIN?? This must be the cry of Melbourne supporters as they have to face Hawthorn for the second time in nine weeks, a mere eight weeks after copping a hundred point loss against them. Read More »

REB’s Rubbish: Round 8

The football season starts for the second time with the break coming at a handy time for clubs such as the injury ravaged Saints but other clubs such as Freo would probably have preferred to have a kick last week. My dodgy tipping form returned with a vengeance last week with Richmond somehow managing to lose that game against those darned Saints. There’s some very close matches on this week so not a bad week to get 6, 5 might even be the par score for the round. Read More »

REB’s Rubbish: Round 7

On a bit of a roll in recent weeks as back to back eights has me on 38 points for the year (36 winners only of course) but according to some that makes me one week closer to a complete and utter wipeout. Looking at this round there are a couple of jagged rocks that could yet sink the good ship tipster. Will the Eagles fire up seeing Juddy return to the West in a Carlton jumper? Can the Power win in Victoria without the Chadmeister? Read More »

REB’s Rubbish: Round 5

We all got bent over and spanked last week by the so called predicatable round. This week I’ll be out to do better or more probably pick up another five winners. My monumentally mediocre tipping thus far this year has netted me the severly underwhelming tally of 22 winners. It’s a good thing I’m on a diet cos I won’t be getting the chocolates with those numbers. Read More »

REB’s Rubbish: Round 4

So after three rounds what have we learn’t this season? The Cats, while not firing on all cylinders are atop the ladder and it is the Hawks as expected and the Bullies perhaps unexpectedly leading the challengers. Collingwood, Adelaide and Sydney remain strong and the Saints are about the place without dominating. North, Brisbane, Essendon and Port have played some reasonable footy at times with mixed results and Melbourne, Richmond and Carlton remain basket cases. For me the big surprise is West Coast. I didn’t dare to believe that our nemesis from the West could be so toothless. With Cox on one foot and Ashley Hansen leading the ‘hide and seek’ medal voting so far this season they look decidedly suspect. In 1979 Kiss’ Dynasty album stayed in the charts for well over 52 weeks and this has in fact outlasted the Eagles dynasty. Shame that. Read More »

REB’s Rubbish: Round 3

The cynic in me is wondering why this particular round is marketed as ‘Rivalry Round’. I thought all of the other teams were our rivals but there you go. How many St Kilda fans rush out to grab that fixture anxiously trying to work out when they will get to play their arch rivals the Western Bulldogs? How many Hawks fans are wondering why they aren’t playing the Cats or the Bombers this week? Yes, I’m confused as well but you probably worked that out by looking at my tips. Read More »

REB’s Rubbish: Round 2

Five winners last week and looking in reasonable shape too until last year’s nemesis Essendon bobbed up in the last match with a stunning upset victory over the Roos. These early rounds are tough for the average tipster to negotiate and it’s even harder for me ha ha. Read More »
