#1 Posted: 7/20/2008 9:00:05 PM Local has -14.
Anyone have any ideas on this one? I expect a Storm win for sure, but by how much? Dragons aren't mugs...

It is dropping, but local still has -14. I guess they might be getting a lot of action on the Storm...

#9 Posted: 7/21/2008 1:31:42 AM Just listened to an Australian bookmaker online and he said he would take the Storm -13.5 as he doesn't think that'll be enough for the Dragons.
Who knows...?

If this even means shit. I mean someone placed 200,000 on the nights awhile back and they lossed, could have been bullshit talk though. |

#11 Posted: 7/21/2008 2:25:42 AM A lot of the OZ rugby sites have audio of the blokes from Centrebet or the local TABs talking it up. They give their side opinion on the games as well and one of them reckoned that he'd have a punt minus the points with the Storm.
Doesn't mean he'll be right.
That's just what he said.

#12 Posted: 7/21/2008 2:26:53 AM I can only imagine what a rush it would be to have $35,000 on a single game.
Win or lose, I'd have a heart attack...

#13 Posted: 7/21/2008 2:33:35 AM I would bet that much if i had millions, but i wouldn't bet that much if i had like 100k in the account.
It would be pretty nervy though, would be sweat dripping stuff. It would be so intense. |

#16 Posted: 7/21/2008 3:07:23 AM I like the Dragons +points here, don't think they have been hammered by more than 12 pts so far this year. They also have a full strength squad, decent kicking game and can play defense. Wests last play options and kicking game was atrocious last week, that and some great individual play by Slater, GI and Cam Smith made the Storm win look much easier that it seemed. |
