Sorry Mo, but I think there actually IS a logical reason why it works.

I personally think sticking to teams with a genuine home ground advantage is a damn good idea. Also, I NEVER back teams giving up a start but I do like to back teams receiving a start. Well, the homedog system is a combination of those two ideas. Admittedly though, you do sometimes have to back teams that you don't honestly think can win. This week for example, I think Collingwood will really struggle to stay within 30 points.

If you don't mind, can I just say that I think backing teams playing interstate hurt you last week. I noticed in your selections, you had Fremantle against Essendon in Melbourne and Port against Sydney in Sydney. Now I personally wouldn't have even thought of backing those two teams. I almost never back teams playing interstate, except in matches involving Brisbane, but you know I have different rules where my own team is concerned.

I hope you don't think I'm lecturing you because I don't claim to be any expert or anything. Just trying to help. That's why I suggested perhaps you should go back over your selections and try to look for a common denominator amongst the losing bets. Perhaps if you had cut out teams playing interstate, you might have done better. Or there might be something else you discover which will help you cut out losers in future.
