Betting market move

Betting agencies - as much as they annoy the daylights out of me - are rarely wrong when they alter their odds this much in a single change. Looks done. The question remains:- is he really up for the fight?

Given that only a week ago he said things needed to change, he either has very low pain tolerance (from PJ twisting his arm) or that what he hasn't been telling the media outlets the entire truth about not wanting to coach "at the moment".

What do they base these prices on? What do they know that no one else seems to?

I think the $250k bet @ $5 fixed odds from P Jackson's account has probably altered the market to some degree.

Edit - spelling

Perhaps he liked what he watched on saturday night? The list has potential!

At $41.00, do you think they'd even get a single bet on Gary Lyon, Dean Bailey, Brad Green or Grant Thomas? :wacko:

if we put some money on Thomas and bring his in, maybe roos odds will slacken and we can make a killing

good way to pay off 3 mill

I think the odds shortening is probably related to us winning which maybe got a few people thinking Roos might actually be keen as we aren't a massive basket case after all.

The bookies then react to the cash coming on by drastically shortening the odds.

If Roos was really locked in they would've suspended the market.

I maintain it means very little. It would undermine Craig too much to fully commit to Roos right now. Especially considering Craig is getting some positive results from the players.

There was a bloke at the presidents lunch who kept winking and telling anyone who would listen that, "we got our man". He was in no way connected to the club on a professional level and was completely wasted by the time I spoke to him. Maybe he is sportsbet's source?

For a second there I thought you were saying that you still had Garry's lunch money from grade 3. I was going to blame Garry's inability to choose a coach on your bullying in primary school. And his bad back.

I actually think PR has always said we have some talent and the make up of a fair team

but something is very wrong at that club

well the wheels are in motion to fix that something that is wrong

so now that something has changed he has to have another look at it

you would be right about some of those comments jjj

I don't htink I saw that Williams, Eade or Craig's odds were slashed.

There is firming odds, and then there are plunges. Not often the latter isn't from "smart" money.

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak
