Hawthorn at $1.45 are off-limits to the Head-to-Head Fund, as are Fremantle at $1.30, and the Line Fund algorithm assesses as too great the 13.5 and 20.5 points start that these two teams are, respectively, being made to grant the Cats and Swans.
Sunday, September 15, 2013 at 4:11PM | Post a Comment As I mentioned last week, teams from the Top 4 ladder positions have a remarkable recent record in Semi-Finals. This record was enhanced this week with wins by the Cats and the Swans meaning that teams from positions 1 through 4 at the end of the home-and-away season now have a 26 and 2 record in Semi-Finals.
