Predict the opening odds

Predict the opening odds for Fridays game.
I would assume Melb would probably deserve favoritism, but an away game at a venue we are currently undefeated I reckon there will be nothing between them.

Manly $1.90
Scum $1.90
 
By rights should be
Storm - $1.70
Manly - $2.10
I like Manly half/fulltime - should be around $3.20 or
Manly 9+ half time at $3.70 - $4.00
 
Anyone who is thinking of backing Manly to win the comp has a decision to make.

1 Take the current odds of about $5.50 (good odds in a 6 horse race) or

2 Wait until after Fridays game, if we win we could shorten into around $3.50 or $4.00.

Lose and we might go out slightly.
 
TAB Sportsbet will today list the Storm as $2.10 roughies for their trip to Brookvale Oval. Manly will be $1.70 favourites.

Not possible

If Scum are $1.35 then Manly will be $3.10ish

If Manly are $1.95 then Scum will be $1.85


It is possible, its only about 126% market. But usually they are much skinnier, around 110%.
 
Amazing that we are favs...BUT I suppose

It's Fortress Brookvale

We assume Cronk is still out

AND they are scared of T-Rex
 
Might be possible Mick but it would be a lonely life betting 126% in a two horse.No need for a penciller thats for sure.
 
Yeah that's for sure Susan. But at every meeting I worked at I would see someone have a really dumb bet.
We would have a hose at $3 and every other bookmaker would be $3.50 or $4.00 and up would come some goose and have his $50 on it. We would geta laugh out of this every time.
