Well, personally I would say that about 90% of my line bets are on the underdog. I very rarely back the favourites. I much prefer to have my team starting the game ahead rather than behind! :smile:

Of course, there is my home dog system which picked 2 from 2 on the weekend, but in other games as well, I still much prefer to go for the outsider. On the weekend, I had 4 line bets. 3 were on the underdogs (Port Adel, NZ Warriors and Syd Swans) and 1 was on the favourite (Essendon). I usually only back the favourite when I am totally confident that they're going to thrash their opposition and that was certainly the case with the Bombers.

By the way, the majority of times that I win with my line bets on the underdog, that team actually wins the match outright (eg. Warriors & Swans) but I still prefer to play it safe and use the start.
