00:02 - G'day punters, welcome to Head Over Heart.
00:12 Billy Brownless, Daisy Thomas, our good friends at Pointsbet.
00:15 We're excited, grand final is coming up,
00:18 but I wanna have a look back Daisy,
00:20 because it's been a great final series.
00:22 Has an unbelievable, huge crowds, close games.
00:26 Who's impressed you the most?
00:28 - Well, other sides playing in the grand final,
00:30 you probably have to look to the Brisbane Lions.
00:31 They've been very, very complete, very, very professional,
00:35 and been able to kick a big score.
00:36 But outside of that, the Giants and the Blues
00:39 to get to where they did in the manner they did
00:40 and how their season progressed was absolutely awesome.
00:43 Who did you love?
00:44 - I like the Giants, Adam Kingsley, well done to you.
00:47 They were-- - Coach of the year.
00:48 - Yes, for me, yes.
00:49 They lost those players at the start of the year.
00:51 They were three wins, eight losses or something,
00:54 and only lose a prelim final by a point, my friend.
00:57 So I love them, well done to them.
00:59 But let's talk about the big one.
01:01 Here it is, the big dance, the two best sides,
01:03 one and two after, what, 24 rounds of football finals.
01:08 Collingwood, $1.75, Brisbane, $2.10.
01:11 - Yeah, I think this game, if it was played at the Gabba,
01:13 you'd probably reverse those odds there, Bill,
01:14 but it isn't.
01:15 It's at the MCG, of course, where it's the pies home ground
01:18 and they play it magnificently.
01:20 There's still a lot of question marks
01:21 about the Brisbane Lions at the Gabba.
01:23 What's your stat?
01:24 - Well, at the MCG, they've lost 14 of the last 15, my friend.
01:28 - That's not very good.
01:28 And if you go back to this year, of course,
01:30 you can remember them having a decent lead against Melbourne
01:33 about seven minutes ago, and found a way to lose that.
01:36 They will have to be at their absolute defensive best
01:38 against the pies who can slice you and dice you
01:41 on the nice wide expanses of the MCG.
01:44 - Is it gonna be a close grand final?
01:46 - Well, history tells us probably not, Bill.
01:49 I think it's 22 plus points in the last nine,
01:52 so not overly close,
01:54 but I think this one will be a little bit closer
01:56 than maybe some suspect.
01:57 The Lions with all the firepower,
01:59 the pies' ability to slow them down
02:00 and not let them score and then score the other way.
02:03 So I'm thinking maybe 10 or 12 goals
02:05 will probably get it done for you in this.
02:06 - Well, they've only kicked nine and eight,
02:08 so they've got to kick a couple more.
02:10 That's why I like Brisbane, to be honest.
02:12 I think they've got the firepower there
02:14 and they could win this game,
02:15 and that's nice, juicy odds there.
02:17 Have you got a same game multi-foot?
02:19 - I do, Bill.
02:19 As I said, I think the pies can win in a somewhat close one,
02:22 one to 39 there.
02:23 I'm going to take Cam Rainer, anytime goal scorer.
02:25 He's been fantastic down there in the forward line
02:27 at the feet of the big guys.
02:28 Bo McCreary as well.
02:29 He's got a little bit like Cam Rainer.
02:31 He's got speed, he's got pace.
02:32 He'll be doing some chasing and tackling there.
02:34 - Pendles! - And Pendles, the old boy.
02:36 25 or more disposals.
02:38 I think he might be winning the normie too,
02:39 just between us two.
02:40 Get you a nice $11.74.
02:43 - It'll be perfect for him, won't it?
02:44 He'll just set it up beautifully.
02:46 Cool, calm, collective.
02:47 - Exactly.
02:48 - Like him, $11.74.
02:50 That's nice, speaking of Norm Smith.
02:51 - Well. - Where is your man?
02:52 - Well, he's down there. - 23!
02:53 - 23 bucks, if you don't mind.
02:56 For a bloke that's proven on the big stage,
02:58 Geordie Degoy, no surprises, goes up.
03:00 Yeah, he could favorite there
03:01 for how good he was in the prelim.
03:03 Do you think they send someone to him?
03:05 - Well, I reckon they might.
03:07 You might be right there,
03:08 'cause he was outstanding last week.
03:10 Didn't play the last seven minutes of the game,
03:11 but it was very good.
03:12 I like Dunkley, Lockie Neal, the Brownlow medalist.
03:15 He could get the Norm Smith.
03:17 And Hugh McCluggage, he travels light.
03:19 He doesn't take a lot of luggage, Hugh McCluggage.
03:21 So I like any of those three
03:23 to win the Norm Smith medal there, my friend.
03:26 But look at this, Daisy.
03:27 This is where it's all gonna happen.
03:28 This is where the experts are all gonna look at this.
03:31 - Hang on, hang on. - The punters.
03:32 - Demanded your own same game multi for the last-
03:34 - For the grand final. - Oh, please.
03:36 - This is where I'm at me best, my friend.
03:37 Brisbane to win.
03:39 Josh Dunkley, 30 or more disposals.
03:41 Did I say that? - Yeah.
03:42 - That's a lot.
03:43 Joey Danner, now if they're gonna win, of course,
03:45 they gotta kick goals.
03:46 So Joe Danner stands up, he kicks two or more.
03:49 Lincoln McCarthy, being good.
03:51 You've managed to get a Geelong just team there.
03:53 - Connection, two or more goals.
03:55 $22.44, only a points bet.
03:59 Billy's grand final multi, get on bet responsibly.
04:03 - Yes. - Of course,
04:04 you gotta do that.
04:04 I like that, I think Brisbane win, my friend.
04:06 - I don't think they do,
04:07 but I can see Joe Danner here kicking the most goals.
04:09 How's this, the Gary Ablett Senior Special.
04:12 Any player to kick the most goals outright
04:14 in a losing side gets you $5.
04:16 So maybe there's one for the punters in that one.
04:19 I don't like how much of the Brisbane Lions
04:21 you've got there, just nothing for the pires.
04:22 - No, I know, but if Nathan Buckley Special,
04:25 any player to win the Norn Smith in a losing side
04:28 does it, is Josh Dunkley, that's $11.
04:30 - I didn't wanna go with that
04:31 'cause I think he might've taken it personally.
04:33 Anyway, Bill, I'll tell you where you can find
04:34 all those markets.
04:35 It's on the points bet app.
04:36 You get everything you need first.
04:37 Goal score on most disposals, anything you need.
04:39 Have a wonderful weekend.
04:41 Happy punting.
