Hi all and welcome to our AFL football forum. Good to see I am not even the first to post!

There are a lot of AFL forums around already, but we wanted to start our own because many of them degenerate into slanging and abuse, whilst our strict behavioural rules will prevent that from happening.

Any AFL topics are welcome here, but as a predominantly sports betting and racing business we are hoping that the main emphasis will be on football betting tips and strategies to help each other win at AFL betting. We will of course also be promoting our AFL betting package, run by Professor Stephen Clarke! (For info visit www.smartgambler.com.au )

Australian Rules football is an excellent game to bet on, with a less mature market than bigger international sports like soccer and NFL which get picked over by a lot of professionals. It attracts a lot of 'emotional' money and has a wide range of different bet types, including futures bets, that can be profitably exploited. I have personally made my biggest sports betting profits from AFL and look forward to each season with great enthusiasm!
