Tigers vs NQ
 

K I need some advice where i can put my investment on. Im hoping for a 67% return on tigers. I plan not to back handicap atm. I did lose out by 1 point in last years GF when I recall Brett finch kicking that field goal at half time really stuff up the line at fulltime.

As far as I know,Scott Prince hasnt been confirmed to play nor Pat Richards.
I hope this drifts the NQ price shorter and tigers higer.

I know you said your not interested in thr handicap. But the handicap is only 3.5 points at $1.85 with sportstab.

Thats a good bet as far as I am concerned. I thought it would be 5.5 - 6.5 for sure.

Tigers -3.5 is a good bet for me :D

sportsbet is offering -5.0 for even money. I know it'll probally be a high scoring affair and tabsportsbet is offering $1.85 for over 42.5. Are they crazy, even though its a grand final the only thing these two teams know is scoring trys and plentyful of them.

I think it will be under the 42.5 pts, seen a few games this year where i thought the overs were specials and they struggled to get past 34 pts,wouldnt be surprised if there only 12 or 14 scored by h/t and i reckon the defence will be brutal and especially tight, as i thought the cowboys were vunerable against the eels in the middle last week and would leak a few trys but they never looked like letting 1 in and the dragons normally let in around 24+ to any team wearing a footy jumper and the tigers struggled to get to 20!


tipping a 18-16 score but i dont know which way yet.

I reckon it will be a large scoring game....38-24 lol

Found some different betting options at sports acumen that i might bet on:

Last scoring play :reverse of 1st scoring play- the trys seem big odds !

w/tigers try $6
cowboys try $6
f/g [either side] $8
w/tigers goal $2.85
cowboys goal $3

shirt numbers u/o 50.5

h2h - h/t , w/tigers $1.70, cowboys $2.10

h/t total pts : under 18.5 $1.90 , over 18.5 $1.90

time of 1st try : 11th min or under $1.90 , 12th min or over $1.90

Goldmember,

Think about it. What happens after a try??? They have a shot at conversion!! So even if they score a try in the last minute, there's a pretty good chance the last scoring play is going to be a goal. :)

Sh*t , i wasnt think that way , i was thinking just of a penalty goal, thanks, UNLESS they miss the kick :D , its the way they worded it ,sneaky ************s,with the tab 1st scoring its a penalty goal or try but here its just a goal,hope no one else gets sucked in by them.,

Well obviously the first scoring play can't be a conversion, can it??? :D

If the first scoring play is a goal, it has to be a penalty. Whereas the last scoring play could be a conversion OR a penalty, so they group those together and just call it a goal.

first scoring play would probally be either a tigers try or penalty goal to NQ. Tigers have scored a majority of first trys this season and i expect them to do this once again.

still dont know who will win, a little tiny gut feeling the cowboys but not too sure, this will be the the 7th straight year for new premiers;

1999 STORM
2000 BRONCOS
2001 KNIGHTS
2002 ROOSTERS
2003 PANTHERS
2004 BULLDOGS
2005 ?????????

the favourites have lost in 99,01, 03, will the tigers continue the trend in 05

will Thurston become only the 2nd player ever to win back to back G/F for different clubs [Johnny Mayes in 73 and 74 for eagles and roosters]

or will he suffer the the same fate, and lose a G/F after winning the Dally M as B.Cousins did [ brownlow]

Cowboys started so well until that ridiculous pass. What was he thinking??? I reckon it might be downhill from here. :(

Yep. Only 12-6 at half time, but I reckon the Tigers are looking ominous.

Good game and a fair result. Great performances by Prince & Marshall and co.

Well done Tigers!!!
