While his playing future is still uncertain, punters are seemingly confident that Kurt Tippett will end up at the Sydney Swans, with significant interest coming for them to win the 2013 flag with online bookmaker sportsbet.
They have received more bets than anyone else over the last week and are second in the market at $7.00, only behind Hawthorn who have drifted from $4.00 to $4.50.
“If he does end up at the Swans they will become that much stronger, so it looks like punters are getting in early before their price firms after he signs up,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
Despite all the controversy and withdrawing from the first two rounds of the National Draft, the Adelaide Crows have still been given some hope for next season, on the fifth line of betting at $9.00.
Overall Geelong have been the best backed team and had more money put on them than anyone else, firming from $14 to $12 as a result.
