NRL Prelim Finals Odds, Big Bets and Betting Preview – 2021

Penrith has been written off for the NRL Premiership by TAB punters with the Storm holding a whopping 94 percent of the Head-to-head market for Saturday’s second Preliminary Final.

After opening at $1.50 for the Grand Final qualifier, Melbourne are now $1.32 with TAB taking several bets of $10,000 or more, while the friendless Panthers have drifted from $2.60 to $3.50 and then back to $3.40.

Penrith has also blown out in TAB’s Premiership market from $4.25 to $5 and while they remain the best backed team to win the title, the Storm has closed the gap significantly this week and firmed as $1.80 favourites. Manly has enjoyed a flurry of support at $6.50 over the past two days (see attached graph).

A Melbourne-South Sydney ($2.20) Grand Final has been the most supported option by TAB punters, with the Rabbitohs ($1.70) well backed to beat Manly ($2.15) on Friday night and progress to the decider. There have been notable bets including a $10,000 Head-to-Head on Souths at $1.74 and another $10,000 at $1.73.
