Crusaders no longer 3 /1 favourites
May 16, 2012, 10:34:45

Looks like even the bookies are worried about the Mighty Chiefs... Stormers odds have narrowed too by the looks - bit of a gamble i'd say

Uhm, Brycy could you post us the odds please, and the difference from last week, it will be interesting to see what they have been thinking. Didn't realise there was someone here watching the odds.

So, the bookies have also realised the media hype around the "Invincible" Crusaders

 I just checked on Betting World for the odds on the Super 15 and their odds are somewhat different then the ones quoted above.   They are the biggest book makers in SA and I think they are very accurate normally.

There odds are as follows:-

         Crusaders         -             28/10         (used to be 5/2)

         Stormers           -                3/1          (used to be 28/10)

         Bulls                   -                9/2          (no Change)

         Chiefs                -                9/2          (was 5/1)

          Reds                 -               12/1         (was 10/1)

          Sharks              -               16/1        (was 14/1)

          Brumbies        -                16/1       (was 20/1)

          Higklanders    -                28/1 

The odds on the rest is immaterial - since there is no way they can reach the play-off stage of the torunament.

That is more like it. I like the change so a clear change of mind regarding the Saders and chiefs there, hell they only lost one game.

Ektually Ek the odds on the Chiefs have improved, if you look a little more closely.

Crusaders are overrated, they shouldn't be favourites, the Rebels proved exactly that much.
