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!

]]> http://www.ozepunting.com/blog/sports/afl/round-9-afl-betting-odds-for-the-09-season/169/feed/ 3 SportingBet Superstars – Dream Team Style Fantasy Football Betting http://www.ozepunting.com/blog/sports/afl/afl-superstars-dream-team-fantasy-football-betting/117/ http://www.ozepunting.com/blog/sports/afl/afl-superstars-dream-team-fantasy-football-betting/117/#comments Thu, 26 Mar 2009 01:56:32 +0000 Australian Punter http://www.ozepunting.com/blog/?p=117 Just when I thought Sporting Bet couldn’t get any better at innovating the online betting space, they release SportingBet Superstars. For those not familiar with AFL Dream Team, it is a fantasy football game which you choose a team of players that fit within your allocated salary cap, and the stats in the real games score points for you each week. I have been playing Dream Team for several years now, and it’s a load of fun and highly addictive. I know for a fact that I’ll be spending even more time analyzing the stats this year now that I can bet on it too!

Here’s a quick list of some of the unique betting options provided by SportingBet.

Top 5 Superstar Defenders

Players who are classified as backs in Dream Team, but also play in the midfield are what you want to look for here.

Joel Bowden 5.75
Luke Hodge 6.50
Chad Cornes 6.00
Andrew Embley 13.00
Sam Fisher 13.00

See More

Top 5 Superstar Midfielders

The highest scoring players at the end of the year are those who play in the guts. The midfield is where your Dream Team is won and lost.

Gary Ablett 5.25
Jimmy Bartel 5.25
Joel Corey 6.00
Dane Swan 10.00
Bradd Dalziell 12.00

See More

Top 5 Superstar Ruckman

There are not very many rucks that score well consistently in Dream Team, Dean Cox is without a doubt the stand-out ruck in fantasy, and arguably real footy too. Cox has a massive average against Brisbane, unfortunately the odds offered earlier today of $2.75 have shortened to $2, although this is probably still overs.

Dean Cox 2.00
David Hille 6.50
Troy Simmonds 7.50
Drew Petrie 9.00
Aaron Sandilands 9.00

See More

Top 5 Superstar Forwards

Big bags of goals certainly gives power forwards the potential for very high scores, but roaming around on the wings collecting marks and kicks makes for more consistent high scores.

Matthew Pavlich 7.50
Lance Franklin 8.00
Matthew Richardson 9.00
Brett Deledio 10.00
Brent Harvey 9.00

See More

Premiership Teammates Of Past

Who will score the most points in round 1 out of these three champions? Judd and Kerr will certainly be tagged, will the Blues play a man on Cousins letting Deledio and Foley roam free? This could be the difference.

Chris Judd 2.45
Daniel Kerr 2.55
Ben Cousins 2.75

#1 Draft Pick Trio

These three are all guns and there is value in Gibbs, coming into his third year who probably won’t get as much attention as Murphy.

Brett Deledio 2.50
Marc Murphy 2.55
Bryce Gibbs 2.80

2006 Draft Superstars

I don’t think Boak will match the other two, and the odds reflect that.

Joel Selwood 2.22
Bryce Gibbs 2.45
Travis Boak 3.25

2007 Draft Superstars

It’s hard to go past the 2008 Rising Star Rhys Palmer here, $2.20 is good value.

Rhys Palmer 2.20
Cale Morton 2.42
Chris Masten 3.40

Geelong have displayed their early dominance yet again and to the delight of many, the real stuff is about to begin. Here are the current best win odds to be had online for the first round of the 2009 AFL season. I’ve added another online betting site to OzePunting.com, SportsAlive. They have been offering some very juicy odds lately, especially on the roughies (my favourite) – have a look and see for yourself.

As usual, my tips are in bold, and the bold odds are the best available for that particular bet. Stay tuned for a post about my favourite online betting site, SportingBet Australia. They have been ahead of the pack for offering exotic bets in the past, but this year they’ve taken it to a whole new level.

]]> http://www.ozepunting.com/blog/sports/afl/2009-afl-round-1-betting-odds/106/feed/ 0 Get Ready for the 2008 Spring Racing Carnival http://www.ozepunting.com/blog/racing/thoroughbred/2008-spring-racing-carnival/89/ http://www.ozepunting.com/blog/racing/thoroughbred/2008-spring-racing-carnival/89/#comments Wed, 10 Sep 2008 21:10:48 +0000 Australian Punter http://www.ozepunting.com/blog/?p=89 Over the coming weeks, I’ll be placing my bets online for the major 2008 Australian horse races for the Southern Hemisphere’s most renowned thoroughbred racing event known as the Spring Racing Carnival. Racing in Spring has it all, the top group 1 races featuring the best horses from all over the country, and even the world. Among the top races this spring are the Epsom Handicap, the Spring Champion Stakes, Caulfield Cup, Cox Plate and then we get to the race that stops the nation – The 2008 Melbourne Cup. Not to mention 21 Country Cups including Bendigo, Cranbourne, Geelong, Manangatang, Sale and others spread out over nearly 3 action packed months.

I’m a big fan of getting bets on early at fixed prices in order to attract the best odds possible, which undoubtedly attracts some risks but the reward is well worth it if you’re on the money. Getting decent fixed odds used to be possible only through a select few bookies via the phone, but now thanks to the internet, finding and comparing the best odds for future horse races is now easier than ever.

Again I’ll list the top three places for you to research who has the best odds for your particular horse.

  • IAS Bet – Mark Read’s own usually has the best fixed price odds.
  • Sporting Bet – Yes, despite the name, you can bet on racing as well.
  • CentreBet – Always decent odds to be had here.

Happy punting, and check back here throughout Spring for some free tips and links to the best odds online for the major races. It almost goes without saying, if you can find good fixed odds for Weekend Hussler, it may well be worth throwing a few coins down.
