With the players they are getting the Cowboys seem great value at $21 as long as they sort out their off field crap.

Can't believe the Dogs even with all their additions being ahead of the Titans, Warriors and Tigers. Even the Raiders at 15 as well look better odds considering they should be better next year.

Doesn't these odds work on the amount of money actually placed on each team...

So therefore....if you go and place $3 mil on the tigers tomorrow, for argument sake, then they will go into firm favourites....well....thats how thought they worked...

Brisbane have a pretty decent squad for next year, so I can understand why they are placed so well.

Might change though if the Stuart rumours come true.

As much as I despise them I can understand the bulldogs getting a few $ put on them. THey missed Eastwood this year & his ball playing skills are going to make them much more competitive next year, they will score a lot of tries with Barba running off his offloads.

Gotta admit though, It's the first time I've seen the Tigers at odds that short before the season kicks off

Im sure the odds change depending where the money goes but this is a fairly new market and i doubt there has been much money been thrown around, so at this stage it purely what the bookies feel to be accurate

Don't know why anyone is surprised - nobody has ever rated us. Not now, not when we won the comp, not ever really.

Teams like the Eels and Bulldogs can do f**k all but will always be ahead of us in the betting.

With Moltzen and Tuiaki next year like two new signings, I see no reason why we won't do well again next year.
