International Rules anyone?

[Lookingtostart]

Ireland have a lot of key players that won't be playing because of domestic duties. I will need to investigate further, there may be good betting opportunities.

Anyone?

[donkson]

Crapshoot imo

[brettels]

Australia can't lose with jake king and robin nahas. free money

[binomial]

lol

don't think its til next week is it?

[brettels]

28th october & november 4th

[Lookingtostart]

For the series:
Australia $1.53
Ireland $2.37

If it's a crapshoot than the value is with Ireland, but I think the line's about right. Australia should win but it depends if they'll field a serious side, they may want to make it competitive?

brad green likely to captain for australia

[Gee]

i have no idea about this series.

lost interest about 10 years ago.

from memory, there is a pretty big bias toward the home team.

i would rather bet on premier league darts TBH (and I don't bet on that).

[brettels]

Just back the Aussies in game 1, game 2 at metricon stadium so it's foreign to most the Aussie side too

[hawley]

What is this?

Like an international game of aussie rules? (would explain the name )

The aussies are fielding a C-grade squad, B-grade at best. My assumption is that this is to make the game more competitive, and Bet365 has picked up on this. Price has evened to $1.83 for both sides, not very good. The value was with Ireland last week!

My 2cents, australia usually win these because of their physical presence, AFL players are full time professionals and train well. In the past, they had champions to choose from. Ireland struggle with the physicalities. They are trying to keep the series alive and I think the selection was planned this way.

Why, because the time when Sheedy was "coach"?

[binomial]

hard to put any of those players in the top 50. maybe swallow and kelly.

[Gee]

Why, because the time when Sheedy was "coach"?

lol. In fairness I think I lost interest pretty damn soon after it started. It never really interested me or excited me all that much.

[brettels]

Its nowhere near as good as AFL but is still worth it when there is next to nothing on in australia. These two matches vs ireland will probably get more spectators than what the NBL will all year.

[brettels]

Underdogs for game 1!!! Definately worth a punt on the Aussies.

[Trampas]

Aussie to win series and game 1 imo

[brettels]

Agreed, odds have moved us into favorites again

[Lookingtostart]

Got Australia for $2.00 to win 1st game, it's on.

That's funny, Ireland's -1.5 @ $2.00 for first test at same bookie (bet365)! Must not be many punters on this match.

I like the over too @ 88.5! Not pulling the trigger yet, can't be bothered depositing more.

[s2230011]

TAB has it at 99.5 !!

[Lookingtostart]

TAB has it at 99.5 !!

So does centrebet. 88.5 is pretty good, that would be around 177 in AFL where the aussies are C grade. I assume that both teams will have weak defences given the squads. Yes, it's a square play, so what, I miss footy

Edit: 88.5 over is $1.72, no wonder.

[Lookingtostart]

Anyone know of another bookie that takes this series other than Bet365 and Centrebet?

[s2230011]

Well I guess the question is which is the better bet U99.5 or over 88.5?

[Aussports]

over/under 95.5 1.88 sportsbet

i like milne for top point scorer 6.50

[s2230011]

The last 3 series have gone under this total in the first game then over in the second.

[brettels]

Anyone know of another bookie that takes this series other than Bet365 and Centrebet?

sportsbet, iasbet, TABsportsbet, betfair, betezy. paddy power

[brettels]

small bet on the aussies, not long to go now (1hr)! This is purely bias punting.

[hangtime]
