Despite the Wallabies’ 3-nil demolition of France, the Aussies have been installed $2.40 outsiders against the All Blacks in their Bledisloe Cup opener at Sydney’s ANZ Stadium.
Online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au has priced New Zealand at $1.54 to continue their dominance over Australia and achieve a world record 18th consecutive test victory on August 16.
The Wallabies are on a 7 match winning streak of their own, and are priced at $1.87 receiving a 4.5 start in line betting as they look to win the cup for the first time in 12 years.
“It really does look like the Wallabies best chance to win back the Bledisloe in a long time and $1.54 for the All Blacks isn’t anywhere near as short as we’ve seen them in recent years,’’ said sportsbet.com.au’s Christian Jantzen.
New Zealand are $1.40 favourites to take out the Rugby Championship featuring South Africa ($3.75), Australia ($6.50) and Argentina ($201).
