Juicy odds on offer

Post: # 979077Post Stephen Theodore »

Just noticed on Sportsbet, we are paying $3.10 for the straight out win and $3.55 for under 39.5 points

I didnt expect us to start favorites, but I am surprised by those figures.

Am definitely going to take a piece of that.

sounds about right.....$3.10 is not too far off the mark....the under 39.5 points is OK, but remember in finals, if the game is gone at 3/4 time, no point in trying in the last term with the double chance.

Don't do it to yourself lads.

There's too much riding on the game, why would you want to add to it?

I recently put a decent amount of cash on the boys for the flag when they were at 6 large. Now them is great odds.

Can't make that sort of multi as one is dependent on the other

agreed, sounds illogical to me.

my money this weekend is on the geelong-collingwood double. if either of those two legs fails to come home then i'll be happy.

also might have a sneaky side-bet on stevie j to kick the most goals in our game. that way if bakes gets pummeled then at least i've got some recompense.

It is illogical, I know, but cant help myself. No way can I bet against us, and I love a bet on the footy.

Even juicier odds on Bulldogs, but cant see that happening. Freo at $2.10 is reasonable value, especially on their own dung hill.

Interesting to note that we have started pretty overwhelming underdogs against Geelong the last 3 times we've played, and won 2/3 and got close in the other.

I like the way you think.

And I might just do the same. :wink:

Also, should we lose on Friday night I'll definitely throw a bit on the Hawks.

Gambling when you hope to lose is the best way to gamble.

If I'm down a bundle come the end of September, you can be sure as hell St Kilda will have won the premiership. :D

If I'm unfortunate enough to win, well, at least with the winnings I'll be able to absolutely annihilate and launch into as much drugs as I can.

Good odds but they're good for a reason.
I'm hopeful more than confident and being hopeful isn't really a good way to bet...you're bound to lose. My money will stay in my pocket. I wish you punters well and I'll be happy enough just for the Saints to win.

How much for the Saints into Freo... and maybe then the Dogs?

Might be worth putting $10 on.
