Thanks for your feedback gents. Crash i am not only quoting longshots. If you look at every SP prices in Melb & Syd today SP was equal on 2 occasions and better on one occasion. That's hopeless when you consider what a rip off the TAB is!! Maybe it is a week thing and the weekend may be different. Don't get me wrong i am in no way saying the tote is a good betting option - it is not. In fact i try not to bet on the tote - but the bookies are not much better and if this week (today being the worst day) is any indication then we are being ripped off left, right and centre.

They (the bookies and TAB) then have the absoulute gall to argue against the advent of betting exchanges.

I hope the week finishes off better with a Magpie win tomorrow night!

cheers
