The market for this year's competition has been thrown into chaos after the first 4 rounds. Even up to last week the hotpots of Bulldogs, Roosters and Panthers dominated the markets with odds of under 5 to 1, the Doggies getting the pick. Today you can get really great divies on anyone you fancy in probably the widest market seen in decades.

Storm $6.50
Doggies $7.00
Roosters $7.00
Cowboys $7.00
Broncos $7.50
Panthers $11.00
Sharks $12.00
Warriors $16.00
Eagles $17.00
Eels $17.00

A few more wins for Manly and we will come in dramatically. Raiders are still $29 but that could also change. I think you will find that the Doggies, Panthers and Roosters are kept reasonably short because of all the money they already hold on them. If this doesn't change in the next 3 weeks then they will blow like a gale.

Maybe I should have thrown a lobster on the Eagles when they were about 100 to 1.

I got 66's and 70. I didn't get the odds on the 8 as they dropped dramatically before I made my mind up. Also got the Knights for the spoon at 15's

Good odds on both accounts, I think you can get in the queue for the Knights, although I wouldn't be suprised if the Rabbits give them a run for their money - this weekend will be a good pointer though.
