Sportz or anyone else
Coming out of retirement!
Any idea where I can get list of games and opening prices for league season 2008 starts etc
Am keen to try a strategy this year as it seems that an enormous amount of roughies win and or favs lose against the start
Cheers

bump sorry

The NSW TAB Sportsbet site used to be good for that sort of thing, but I've just had a look and their current results section only goes back to October.

The Unitab site doesn't have any opening prices but it does have all the line betting results. It's a bit damn time consuming going through them though. Anyway, I looked at last year and here's what happened.

Team giving up the start - 97
Team receiving the start - 95

So over the whole season of 192 games (without finals), it was pretty much 50/50.

And going round by round (favoured team first):
1: 6/2
2: 2/6
3: 3/5
4: 5/3
5: 5/3
6: 3/5
7: 3/3
8: 2/3
9: 2/4
10: 6/2
11: 1/4
12: 5/3
13: 5/3
14: 3/2
15: 3/5
16: 3/5
17: 2/3
18: 2/6
19: 2/6
20: 4/4
21: 6/2
22: 5/3
23: 5/3
24: 6/2
25: 4/4
26: 4/4

Interesting to note that in the final 6 rounds of the comp by which time all the form is well known and there are no more rep games, the favoured team won 62% of the time. Up until that point, the underdogs were in front.

So going by this,Would you say taking underdogs with start is OK
also i remember you spruking something about home dogs once ..do you still bet that way

Is anyone tracking the odds so far this year?

So far, the underdogs are on top. It's 11-5 in favour of the team receiving the start over the team giving up the start.

And it's 7 wins to the home team, 9 to the away team.
