The first round of the 2010/2011 Hyundai A-League soccer is here, Melbourne Heart look set to beat the Central Coast Mariners in the opener, while Perth Glory and Gold Coast United are all favourites to win in the 1st round of the 2010/2011 A-League season. The game of the round is the grand final rematch between Sydney FC and Melbourne Victory who are without marquee player and all-time A-League leading goal scorer Archie Thompson. Punters seem to think Sydney will win this one, and I don’t disagree.

Round 19 AFL Betting Odds

Australian Punter — Wed, 04 Aug 2010 21:43:33 +0000

This looks like a really tough week for tipping with a lot of games that I think could go either way. That also means it’s a great week for finding some juicy odds!

The opener of the round is Essendon and Carlton. Both these teams have plenty of pace and I’m tipping this will be an exciting game worthy of Friday night. Essendon have had it over the Blues in recent times, winning the last 6 straight. The Blues are coming off an absolute thumping from the Pies, while Essendon, helped enormously by veteran Dustin Fletcher, simply destroyed the Saints last week. Hille and Ryder should dominate Hampson and Warnock/Jacobs in the Ruck and if the Bombers midfield is on song again, they should have the Blues covered. I think the bombers are overs and I’ll be getting on those odds.

I reckon the next few games could go either way. Freo should beat the Kangaroos, but they’re without three key players in Sandilands, Tarrant and Ballantyne, plus they’re away from home. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if this was closer than many are predicting. Sydney have a great record against Hawthorn at home, and the Hawks looked desperately tired in the last half against Port Adelaide last week. I’m expecting this to be a close, low-scoring game which could play into Sydney’s hands and cause an upset.

The next two games are polar opposites. We have the battle for the wooden spoon as the 16th placed Eagles host the 15th placed Lions. West Coast aren’t the greatest side going around but they should beat an injury depleted Brisbane. Next, it’s the game of the round as 1st and 2nd on the ladder, Geelong and Collingwood, take each other on at the ‘G which could well be a grand final preview. Both teams are in great form and this should be a cracker. I think the Cats will get home in a close one but I wouldn’t be surprised to see the Pies come out on top.

St Kilda should bounce back after last week and comfortably defeat Port at home, so long as there’s not too much figure skating going on at ol’ Etihad. Next up the Demons take on the Tigers. Melbourne are very short here and Richmond aren’t without a chance. I reckon this game will be much closer than the odds suggest and it may be worth putting the Tigers in a few multis. Both these teams look to be improving and I’m expecting a good game here.

Onto the last game of Round 19, and it’s hard to read Adelaide’s recent form. They looked to be flying after knocking off Geelong a few weeks back, but they backed that up with a poor showing in their SA derby, and last week their inaccuracy in poor conditions cost them the game against Richmond. The Bulldogs are absolutely flying, and it’s hard to see them getting beaten by the Crows, even though they do have a very good recent home record against them.

Here’s the current best win odds from my favourite online bookmakers.

Teams (Home v Away)
Essendon v Carlton	2.02 – 1.80	1.96 – 1.85	1.96 – 1.85	2.00 – 1.83
North Melbourne v Fremantle	2.10 – 1.75	2.12 – 1.72	2.12 – 1.72	2.17 – 1.70
Sydney v Hawthorn	2.15 – 1.71	2.08 – 1.75	2.08 – 1.75	2.15 – 172
West Coast v Brisbane	1.65 – 2.25	1.61 – 2.32	1.61 – 2.32	1.64 – 2.30
Geelong v Collingwood	1.78 – 2.05	1.78 – 2.05	1.78 – 2.05	1.80 – 2.05
St Kilda v Port Adelaide	1.21 – 4.50	1.22 – 4.30	1.22 – 4.30	1.21 – 4.50
Melbourne v Richmond	1.52 – 2.55	1.52 – 2.53	1.52 – 2.54	1.55 – 2.50
Adelaide v Bulldogs	3.35 – 1.33	3.20 – 1.35	3.20 – 1.35	3.25 – 1.35

Good luck, and Happy Punting!

2009 Caulfield Cup Field & Fixed Price Betting Odds

Australian Punter — Sun, 11 Oct 2009 22:13:59 +0000

The ‘09 Caulfield Cup to be held on 17th October is less than a week away now, so it’s a perfect time to get the fixed odds up on the site. Speed Gifted looks to be punters choice at the moment, just ahead of Predatory Pricer and early fav. Vigor and Cima De Triomphe both at $9. By the looks of it, it’s going to be a pretty wet track come the weekend, so make sure you take that into account before getting on.

It would be a good idea to keep an eye on some of the others if you’re scouting a Melbourne Cup winner to see how they finish off the Caulfield Cup.

These odds are from SportsBet who are offering some very healthy fixed odds. They are current as at 9:00am on Monday the 12th and are subject to fluctuation.

Round 9 AFL Betting Odds for the ‘09 Season

Australian Punter — Wed, 20 May 2009 07:19:12 +0000

There were no real upsets last week, although some very close games that could have quite easily been. Collingwood didn’t bounce back, in fact they did quite the opposite. Their young players simply couldn’t step up, and even without Fevola having much of an impact, the Blues thumped them. Fremantle showed a little, but not enough to topple the Hawks. They didn’t win convincingly, and if Freo had kicked a little straighter the result could have been very different. Melbourne gave the Bullies a fright, and the young Demons are not too far off stringing a few games together. West Coast gave their all against Sydney, but couldn’t get over the line, and the Tigers recorded their seventh loss for the year after Warren Tredrea stole the game in the last few minutes.

On to this week, and Adelaide are the stand-out value bet. Playing at home, I don’t see how Carlton deserve to be big favourites. The Crows have comfortably beaten the Blues the last 5 times they’ve met, no matter where the game has been played, and Adelaide have had a pretty rough draw so far. Carlton, on the other hand have yet to impress me this year. I expect at the very least this game to be close, and the odds look like big overs to me.

Richmond are also a good chance, having dominated Essendon in recent years and surely they’ve got to win one soon, don’t they?

The last games I see value in, but just can’t bring myself to bet on them, are Fremantle to beat the Roos and Melbourne to beat the Hawks. It might pay to put them in a few multi-bets.

I don’t see too much value in the other games this week, they look pretty black and white to me. My betting tip for this week is a head-to-head multi with Geelong, West Coast, Sydney, St. Kilda and Adelaide paying $7.22 from SportingBet. Good luck, and happy punting!

Teams	SB	IAS
Geelong Bulldogs	1.14 5.75	1.14 5.75
Kangaroos Freo	1.73 2.10	1.74 2.10
Adelaide Carlton	2.30 1.62	2.25 1.65
Eagles Pies	1.50 2.60	1.53 2.50
Tigers Bombers	2.35 1.60	2.35 1.60
Sydney Port Power	1.57 2.40	1.57 2.40
Saints Lions	1.17 5.00	1.16 5.30
Hawks Dees	1.18 5.00	1.17 5.10

2009 AFL Round 8 Betting Odds & Tips

Australian Punter — Wed, 13 May 2009 00:30:47 +0000

We’ve completed nearly a third of the home and away season for 2009 and we’ve just seen another week of major upsets, proving just how close most of the competition are this year. The two standout teams so far are certainly Geelong and St. Kilda. The amount of improvement in the Saints’ skills and gameplan is simply astounding, they seem a genuine competitor for the flag this year with a solid list that hasn’t been struck down by the injury curse and they’ve mastered the defensive side of their game, restricting Collingwood, Port Adelaide and Fremantle to 5 goals or less. Geelong on the other hand are doing exactly what they did last year, showing only glimpses of their best, but doing it exactly when it counts. Round 14 should be very entertaining.

On Friday night, we saw the Bombers smash the reigning premiers in one of the weeks major upsets. I was hoping the odds would be better for the Saints after this big win, unfortunately that isn’t the case. You’d be a brave man to tip against St. Kilda based on their current form. Fremantle continued their win streak against the Blues and North Melbourne shocked punters, and Port Adelaide by barely surviving another late game comeback which has made for some very exciting games of footy in the last couple of weeks.

On to this weeks tips and odds. Fremantle have a good home record against the Hawks, and Hawthorn are struggling with form and injuries, whereas the young Dockers are playing well, even away from home. The home ground advantage is what sways me here, I’m betting on Freo by less than 24 points. Collingwood can bounce back against Carlton at home after their big loss to St. Kilda, I will take those odds in what I expect to be a close game between these two rivals, another margin of < 24 for me.

Good luck this week and happy punting!

Teams	SB	IAS
Fremantle Hawthorn	1.90 1.90	1.91 1.91
Melbourne Bulldogs	5.00 1.17	5.00 1.17
Geelong Kangaroos	1.07 8.50	1.07 8.50
Brisbane Adelaide	1.35 3.20	1.34 3.25
Sydney Eagles	1.30 3.50	1.28 3.65
Port Adelaide Richmond	1.22 4.25	1.24 4.15
Collingwood Carlton	2.35 1.60	2.30 1.62
St. Kilda Essendon	1.17 5.00	1.17 5.00

2009 AFL Round 7 Betting Odds and Tips

Australian Punter — Thu, 07 May 2009 00:49:19 +0000

As I stated last week, Hawthorn versus Carlton surely gets the title of match of the round. In what could have been a world title boxing bout between the two full forwards, Jarryd Roughead vs. Brendan Fevola with both booting 8 goals, it may have ended in a controversial draw. Big Fev just hitting the post to miss the knockout punch seconds before the final siren. This was a thrilling comeback from Carlton, making the most of Hawthorn’s turnovers in the last quarter. I ended up tipping the Hawks but Carlton should probably have won this one. Two of the legs in my multi didn’t make it, Freo were too strong for the Eagles, and like many predicted, the Saints had Doggies covered. The rest of the games went pretty much as expected for punters, even if the Cats scared a few people early.

On to this weeks tips and betting odds, as usual my tips are in bold, as well as the best available odds for each team. Richmond have a good recent record against Brisbane, but can they do it without Richo? I don’t think so.

Teams	SB	IAS
Essendon Hawthorn	4.75 1.19	4.50 1.20
Geelong Sydney	1.12 6.25	1.10 6.75
Richmond Brisbane	2.00 1.81	2.02 1.78
Kangaroos Port Adelaide	2.75 1.45	2.70 1.45
Carlton Fremantle	1.30 3.50	1.28 3.65
Adelaide Bulldogs	1.95 1.85	1.97 1.82
West Coast Melbourne	1.22 4.25	1.21 4.35
Collingwood St Kilda	2.75 1.45	2.75 1.45
