A bet to jump on

[Moffo]

South Africa are paying $6.50 to win the second test

That is the best odds i've seen for a long time. I see enough there to have a go at that

Thoughts?

lol i got the draw in the first test up at $8.50 though coulda got 16/1 at one stage but thought na dont wanna lose even more though i think australia will kick clear in the serious now because south africa havent had any warm up games on the east coast whereas in the west they had 2 games on the waca pitch while the aussies were in nz my money will be purely on the aussies in these last 2 tests

Hey mof is this better than the Nick O'Hearn bet? I mean you can only have 1 bet of the year ;-)

 

[Moffo]

My thoughts are that since you've tipped SA, Australia's the bet of the year .

I don't think SA are too bad and I might have a bit on them before the start of the test, but they'd need to improve their fielding and batting. Kallis is in which is a bonus and I always think Australia are too short before the matchs start.
What are the odds on the other two options?

I don't think South Africa showed enough to suggest they will win the Boxing Day test personally. McGrath will bounce back, Lee's looking sharp, Warne's a master and Kallis (who will play) is underdone and despite being a fantastic player, probably won't produce his best.

Australia will be short, but they will win.

Well they have given you a good start Moffo. 8/239 the aussies at stumps.

Thank God for Ponting. Without his innings this game would already be over.

I'll still back Australia from here, especially with Warne and MacGill bowling in the fourth innings.

Despite an excellent first day for SA, they're still at good odds - over 4 bucks on sportstab, with Australia only 1.75.

Don't go talking SA up . Moffo will start getting Nick O'Hearn flashbacks as they start to crumble

you have only just discovered Moffo's tips are known as the "kiss of death"

i'm not sure if he's ever won :-k

It is starting to be a worrying trend...

O'Hearn first and then Aqua D'amore doing the biz twice after he wrote her off

In his defence Ulysses was a good win at Flemington today.

:lol: Oh well 2006 is nearly here.

 

[Moffo]

I win quite a bit actually, just never when i tip something on here!

ive had a big go on the SA's though so ill sit quietly and see what happens today

Good luck, hopefully for your sake they don't have an O'Hearn
