Saints flag favs at $2.15, Cats $3.20 and Filth $5.00

Geelong first time hasn't been flag favs since 2007 me thinks.

Looking at the draw, Brisbane must now be a strong chance to finish 4th.

This sort of thing (bookies winging) will continue.

They pay a % (5% I think) of their gross profit to the AFL
The media outlets, and stadia are all engaged with them too -advertising and updating odds.

Therefore the bookies will think they should have a say in how the AFL is run. The AFL should (as they did) tell them to get stuffed), but they are to some degree in bed with the bookies in that they take their money.

More of this to come on a semi-regular basis.

The bookies owe the punters an apology for misleading them away from us and then cleaning up with the result.

I knew all the time we would win, thats why i had a second bet at better odds.

:wink:
