Dees & Radek ‘hotter than Hades’?

Melbourne fans would be ‘Dees-lighted’ with TAB’s ‘hellishly’ tempting AFL/Greys offer on Saturday.

The betting giant’s $5.00 cross-sports proposition is Melbourne to defeat the Sydney Swans by 23pts or more and middle-distance convert Radek Bale winning at The Meadows.

The Demons are ‘hotter than Hades’, sitting on top of the AFL ladder undefeated with seven wins, while the Sydney Swans are fourth with five wins.

Last week, Melbourne rolled cellar-dwellers North Melbourne by 30pts and the Sydney Swans shocked Geelong by 2pts in a nail-biter!

Meanwhile, Radek Bale – prepared by Victoria’s leading trainer Andrea Dailly – is engaged in a Mixed 4/5 (600m).

A versatile performer, he’s won seven races from 16 starts – including three of his past four. And two starts ago, he clocked a slick 34.19sec (Best) victory over 595m at Sandown Park.
The Melbourne v Sydney Swans Round 8 clash at the MCG commences at 7.25pm, while Radek Bale is in Race 8 Box 2 at 9.02pm.

WATCH: Versatile Radek Bale (1) races away for an effortless 34.19sec (Best) win over 595m at Sandown Park on April 15.
