Fremantle are now outright flag favourites for the first time since the markets were opened, with online bookmaker sportsbet firming them from $4.25 to $3.70 over the weekend.
This price could shorten even further after Round 3 with the Dockers priced at $1.80 to beat the Hawks who are $2.00 despite the match being played in Melbourne.
In other betting movements since the weekend:
· Hawthorn v Fremantle: All the money is for the Dockers in this one. If the money keeps coming in at this rate, they will start even shorter than $1.80 come the start of the game.
· Western Bulldogs v Richmond: Things don’t look good for the Doggies, with only a handful of bets coming for them. Punters are all over the $1.32 on the Tigers.
· Adelaide v Sydney: Punters cant split this one, with money virtually even.
· Gold Coast v Brisbane: Its all one way traffic for the Q-Clash, with five times the money on Gold Coast over Brisbane.
· Collingwood v Geelong: Collingwood are coming off a good win, but punters are yet to be convinced, with more than double the amount of bets coming for Geelong.
· West Coast v St Kilda: The Saints have won the first two of the year, but amazingly are $16 in this one!
· GWS v Melbourne: You know things are going bad for Melbourne when the money is coming in 15 to 1 in favour of the Giants. They are also at their shortest ever starting price of $1.33.
· North Melbourne v Port Adelaide: Punters are convinced Port are the real deal, with a heap of money already coming for them in this one despite the odds being very even.
· Essendon v Carlton: Not a lot of love for Carlton, Essendon have been well backed at $1.53.
· Stevie J on the rise: Steve Johnson is now 5th favourite for the Brownlow after coming in from $21 to $12.
· Roo for Coleman?: He is kicking straight, and punters think Nick Riewoldt is value, with the veteran coming in from $31 to $26.
