They also had Qld winning Origin this year @$4.50. Just saying.
They were massive underdogs. The odds are also dependant on where the money is going.They also had Qld winning Origin this year @$4.50. Just saying.
All bookmakers mate..Ha - TAB - the same mob who recently sent a bunch of their staff an invitation to re-apply for their jobs and who suddenly suffered a major technical outage on the last day of the Melbourne Cup Carnival:
Total competence...
I'm not a betting man but I'm thinking about placing a couple of hundred dollars down on us making the 8When are the odds for top 8 coming out? Thats what I'm more interested in. I shall be placing a few dollars on us for that. I hope its its at the complete other end of the scale.
They are on sportsbet now. Dogs $4 to make the top 8, $9 to make the top 4 and $51 to win it.When are the odds for top 8 coming out? Thats what I'm more interested in. I shall be placing a few dollars on us for that. I hope its its at the complete other end of the scale.
Barrett and the team should be reading this !!!Bookmakers have little faith in recently appointed coaches Trent Barrett, Kevin Walters and Anthony Griffin lifting their clubs above the premiership cellar next season.
The TAB has issued its first betting market on the wooden spoon (most losses) for 2021, with Canterbury Bulldogs favourites at $4 from the Broncos and St George Illawarra both at $5.
Despite hiring Barrett and new chief playmaker Kyle Flanagan from Sydney Roosters, the Bulldogs are expected to show little improvement, according to the TAB.
The Belmore club finished last season with just three wins.
The Broncos finished with the wooden spoon last season after opening as an $81 chance to get the game’s most dreaded prize. They are now their shortest quote ever before the start of the season to finish on the bottom.
If anything, the Broncos roster is in worse shape than last season without both David Fifita and Jack Bird.
They are relying on Walters to reinvigorate the roster with his renowned passion.
At the Bulldogs, Barrett says he is not concerned by the TAB’s assessment of his footy team.
“They’re entitled to their opinion,” Barrett said.
“We’re confident that we can improve from last year. After being there a week, whilst knowing we have a lot of work in 14 weeks to get ready, one thing I know is we won’t get beaten on effort.”
This time last year, Gold Coast Titans were $3.50 favourites for the spoon, but are now a $26 chance on the back of five straight wins to finish last season and the recruitment of gun forwards David Fifita and Tino Fa’asuamaleaui.

Correction we finished 9th in 2011. Not 12th. I hope he changes the structure to keep teams guessing and not keep it the same like Des did.In 2011 we finished 12th.
In the offseason we got very very fit and had a new coach with new ideas (even though his ideas were limited).
In 2012 we finished as minor premiers.
Present day, TBaz has promised that he will get our boys fit - and we know he will bring a new attacking game to our structures that we haven't seen at our club for Donkey's years.
In 2021 ???
(I just noticed how interesting it is that 2012 & 2021 are the same, but different... all the same numbers lol).
or other teams are better than they were this year. E.g. we could improve by 10% whereas the Broncos could improve by 30%. I don't think we'll get the wooden spoon, but there's a bit more that goes into it.While i dont expect us to win the premiership next year, i cant see a spoon happening. That would mean we would have to be worse than this year, which i cant see as possible. They have picked us to get the spoon the last few years and were wrong both times. Close to getting it once isnt good enough lol.
