  Hey @Optus how is it that I cannot pay you MORE money to add a device to my plan because of a "contract limitation" I was never told about to begin with. Worst customer experience I've ever had, will be cancelling all my services as will my friends and family.

  North vs West Coast Preview Not sure if anyone actually finds these useful, but here it is 👇 First things first, it’s North’s “home” game but at Optus Stadium. I can’t help but feel like WCE would be favourites if this was actually their home game? Happy to back the Eagles in at $2.75 on TAB. Hough tag: WCE are a good matchup for mids except for whoever cops the Hough tag. Keen to avoid Sheez & LDU this week because one of them will get it. Really like Kerch here playing as a midfielder. Should see plenty of it with the attention going elsewhere. Wardlaw the other one who shapes up as a nice matchup but I’m yet to see him really accumulate so I’m not as keen to play his overs. Happy to add him in a SGM for 15+ though. Defenders vs West Coast: WCE don’t actually concede that many disposals to opposition defenders, so I’m happy to leave Parker and Daniel alone in this one. Lines for them seem bang on. Big X needs help: Leaving big X alone here. Seems like a soft matchup vs WCE on the surface but he’s clearly not right with a very poor last 3 weeks and now requiring backup assistance from Goad. Would lean on the unders here if I had to, but probs leaving it alone given it’s already down at 16.5. North without FOS: On the flip side, North have been very restrictive for most of the season, except for their 2 blowouts vs Adelaide and Freo. Can’t see West Coast smashing North so I’m expecting North to be a bit restrictive. However, there’s also no FOS for North, so no heavy tags on WCE’s midfield. Makes it a hard one to gauge so I’ll be passing on the Eagles’ mids of Kelly & Reid. Defenders vs North: The area I do like here is unders for West Coast defenders. McCarthy & Ginbey out, Herbert & Lindsay in. Shouldn’t be too many positional changes, if any. I reckon Liam Baker and Josh Lindsay’s 19.5 lines are too high here and would be keen on their unders. Murdock, to tag or not to tag: Not sure if Murdock tags in this one. Don’t think they’d be too worried about Parker or Daniel, so I think Murdock might have the chance to win the ball himself again in this one. Don’t mind the o16.5 line for him. Goals vs North: Lastly, North’s backline is a rabble. Expecting West Coast to kick quite a few today. Liking Waterman 3+. Done it 5/L6 and now plays North. Only kicked 1 vs North in rd2 but North are in the second-leg of their WA stint. I’m expecting it to have its toll. SGM legs: Not overly keen on an SGM here but if I did, it would be something centred around Kerch 20+, Wardlaw 15+. Would be happy to add a very generous WCE alt handicap to boost the price here. WCE +30.5 perhaps?

  @FranMooMoo @PeterGr48811483 Count me ******** in. Optus is about as useless as a screendoor on a submarine to begin with anyway.

  @Teh_Jkr @Optus I’m paying triple and I hardly use any data. I complained until I got a bill reduction but next week it will be bye bye Optus for me, despite being a customer for decades👋

  @FranMooMoo I’m on Optus so needless to say I would switch too. They are crap.

  @LydiaAmesha Sorry to hear you may be experiencing issues with your Optus internet. If the issue is only persistent whilst viewing the SBS stream, it would most likely be an issue on their end. However, if you are facing issues with your Optus network in general outside the SBS stream, please send us a Private Message, so we can look into the issue for you further. -Jay

  @adampaps How many home games down there vs. up the highway at Optus? Half half? All in Bunbury? I sense WA3 for the 20th team is a huge go, but the Bunbury market as a home base, convince me…

  @levied @Optus @Starlink I had the same issue several years ago now, if they're still doing this ****** tactic it might be worth lodging a complaint with the ombudsman.
