Betting plunge on St Kilda Saints for spoon

ST KILDA has firmed dramatically from $1000-1 to $3.50 second favourite on Betfair to win the AFL wooden spoon this year.



There were only small bets matched this morning but the betting exchange’s odds suggest an implication the unbeaten Saints could also be embroiled in the Melbourne Storm salary cap rort.



Storm’s former CEO Brian Waldron was St Kilda CEO before he changed codes.


St Kilda's price for winning the wooden spoon fell from $1000 to $3.50.
Richmond remains the $1.35 favourite to win the wooden spoon.

Couple of people trying to get lucky imo. Don't think there's a lot to it.

Although I did say that yesterday morning as well.

The AFL stated last night they would investigate the issue due to Waldron being in charge at the time, and if any breaches were found the club would be punished now even for stuff 10 years ago. Maybe they have and there is a leak, or more than likely a few punters have heard this news and jumped at the possibility to win a massive sum for a small outlay after what happened yesterday.
