Betting question

[Curry & Beer 5,444]

Does anyone know where to find the odds/place a bet on how many wins we will have for the season? All I can find is an over/under type deal which is generally 7 wins.. I'd prefer to go for 10 wins at longer odds. I'd like to do it this week in case we come out looking awesome on Saturday and the odds shorten. Any help appreciated.

Maybe one of Demonland's resident pessimists will take your bet

had a look on sportsbet, no luck.  they usually have hundreds of markets for AFL

incidentally: Gawn is paying $12 to be AA and Hoges is paying $23 to take out the coleman.

i like those odds

also think Mills at $8 is a monty for the rising star

I'm liking Gawn at $12 DubDee. Seems set for a cracker season.

I put 10 on hogan at the same odds for the Coleman a while ago.. 10 on Petracca for rising star.. Pre toe injury at 6.5.. And 10 on Viney to win the Brownlow at 151-1 Got a good feeling about Viney.. Should of put it on for top 3..

I think Petracca's odds of $8 will lengthen to about 15's or more soon after round 1.

As he isnt training with the main group as yet, I cant see him being picked.

So about round 2 or 3 will be a good time to get on IMO. Thats my plan anyway.

I love Max Gawn and believe his rise this year will go a long way towards us making the finals but I think $12 is way too short.

1) he is a massive beast with a history of injury problems

2) they normally only pick 1 ruck and Goldstein is a dominator who never gets injured or even suspended.

Sportsbet are paying $1.66 for more than 7 wins and $2.16 for less than 7. 

 

I got got in last month for more than 7 wins at $1.90.

does that mean if they get 7 on the nose you get half, ie $1.33 ?

nah you just get your money back.  you neither won nor lost

surely if your bet is for over 7, or,  if it is for under 7 and the result is 7 then either of the 2 available bets loses.

that would be stupid... or a very nice loophole for the betmaker

sorry I misread 'draws count as half a win'... 'deadheat rule' is what dubdee is referring to, that sounds right

so if you take this bet you are really backing them for 8 wins (or 7 and a draw).. don't know if that's all that great for a pretty mild return of  1.66
