Summary

Good luck and good punting.

 

NRL Round 4 Wrap

South Sydney V Bulldogs

One way traffic here again on the Friday night game. Bulldogs show Souths no mercy going on to a convincing victory Our office is hoping to stem the tide on the Friday night games. The only respite was that a good client coupled Canterbury, Newcastle and Parramatta in a treble for $15000, to see the Eels give up a 20 point lead at half time to go under to "our" team the Storm 32-30.

Bigger Bets

Bulldogs $30000 @ $1.35
Bulldogs $21000 @ $1.33
Bulldogs $6600 @ $1.90 -8.5 (no worries here)
Several $2000 & $3000 Bets @-8.5 Bulldogs

Parramatta v Melbourne Storm

Our "team" showed the great heart we know they can. What odds would have you got at half time? Overseas punter who took the Storm @ +19.5 was just hoping they could stay with the Eels in the second half. But then one of our loyal Storm punters who took the $6.50 to win the game was ecstatic after the final siren.. Plenty of multiples knocked out here with the Eels going under.

Bigger Bets

Storm +19.5 $8000 @ $1.90
Storm @ $6.50 for $500

Nth Queensland v NZ Warriors

Our office surprised by the huge support for the home side here when the betting opened. Office phones run hot with clients helping themselves to bets of $4000 @ $2.75, a customer still happy to have $6000 @ $2.70 then a interstate client claims our office for $5000 @ $2.65. More customers happy to take the start of +7.5 for the Cowboys. This office happy to see our New Zealand customers lining up for payment after taking $1.50 their side.

Newcastle v Canberra

Canberra beat the Mighty Newcastle at Marathon Stadium, Ha scoffed the punters and took only Newcastle in multis and at the points

Nth Eagles V Roosters

With Brad Fittler ruled out money was obviously going to be for the Eagles,
Wrong!!! Punters wouldn't hear that the hapless Nth Eagles could be of any competition for the Roosters even playing at home.

Bigger Bets

Roosters -9.5 $11000 @ 1.91
Roosters -9.5 $10000 @ 1.90
Roosters to win $4000 @ 1.30
