Many experts called last week’s AFL matches the most difficult round to tip. But it didn’t bother Sportsbet.com.au‘s Punter of the Week, who turned $25 into more than $6,500.
WF from Adelaide put on two Multis and both came through!
His decisions to back Adelaide against West Coast in Perth, St. Kilda over a red-hot Carlton and the GWS Giants to win against arch-rivals the Sydney Swans proved crucial, as did his bet that the Gold Coast Suns would keep it close against Richmond.
