ASADA gave the Sharks a whack during the week, and the wooden spoon may well deliver another if they can’t beat the Raiders at home on Sunday.

Punters with online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au have abandoned the Sharks ($1.65), with four times the money placed on outsiders Canberra ($2.30) to win the match. 

An incredible 90% of money has gone on the Raiders to win by 13 points or more in margin betting, meaning Cronulla’s trophy cabinet may get some rare use.

Speaking of the spoon, the Sharks firmed from $1.95 to $1.70 in the ‘least wins’ market as soon as ASADA made their announcement yesterday. Canberra are $2.10 to finish last.

“Every kid finds that extra yard of pace when they’re chased by the wooden spoon and for that very reason, Sunday’s game should be a good spectacle. There’s a lot riding on this for both clubs,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Christian Jantzen.
