Here are the matches scheduled for the forthcoming weekend in the Australian Football League: Round 7 (home team always listed first) ------- 2nd May Hawthorn v. Richmond (Waverley Park) Melbourne v. Sydney Swans St.Kilda v. Adelaide <-- note no space between 'St.' and 'Kilda' Footscray v. Carlton Collingwood v. North Melbourne <-- 'North Melb', not 'Nth. Melb' 3rd May Fitzroy v. West Coast Eagles (North Hobart Oval, Tasmania) Brisbane v. Geelong (Carrara) Bye: Essendon Round 6 was an interesting round -- as can be seen from the summary, tips for the two games most commentators thought would be "close" (Syd/NM & Haw/Coll) were split evenly. Most put St.Kilda as preferred over Carlton (to their detriment :-/ ). The majority picked Essendon & the West Coast to win, but these two games ended up being the closest of the week: settled by one point. FYI justin@tasman missed out on Melbourne. Oh... only one other thing, mainly for those from overseas. Try to get your tips in by Friday (Australian time). I had some get to me on Saturday morning, i.e. after the Sydney/North game... I realise you wouldn't have heard the result in the meantime, but nevertheless it makes things easier... thanks. :-) How to play. ----------- The instructions are simple -- send Email to u906586@franklin.cc.utas.edu.au with your AFL tips in the body of the message. Enclose your selections by lines of three asterisks on their own (see example below). Make sure you use the team's proper name (e.g. Essendon, not Bombers or Dons) but don't worry about precise spelling: only the first four letters are looked at, case insensitive. You are identified by your Email address -- only one entry per address per week is allowed. Entries should be received by 5 pm Friday afternoons AEST (AEST = GMT + 1000). You don't have to play each & every week, but if you do post selections, the software expects you to tip every game. Each Monday or Tuesday (approximately, and provided the software holds out!) I will post the results from Saturday, the games scheduled for the following week, and some basic instructions for 'newies'. Example tips: *** Richmond (hey, these are only examples!!) Melbourne (will be trained HARD after last Sat) St.Kilda (at home) Footscray Collingwood (just... run away with it in 3rd qtr) Fitzroy (yeah, only examples, but this one I am serious about!) Geelong (played superbly on Sun) *** Any enquiries should be directed to justin@tasman.cc.utas.edu.au and not to the address for tips displayed above. Have fun. Justin Ridge. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Justin Ridge, | Phone: +61 02 202811 Computing Centre | Fax : +61 02 231772 University of Tasmania | Email: Justin.Ridge@cc.utas.edu.au --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi all (again)... sorry to post right in the middle of the week like this. Since a short time ago, mail sent to u906586@franklin.cc.utas.edu.au will bounce... in future please send tips to u906586@bruny.cc.utas.edu.au If your tips for Round 7 have bounced, you should remail them to the @bruny address. If you encountered no difficulties, then your tips made it before the changeover and have been recorded. Apologies for any inconvenience... I just found out that this has occurred. Hopefully you won't need to hear from me until next Monday. Until then...
