Agree. My 20/1 on burnett looking good, still about 6 realistic potential winners still in though.

Report TheBongoMan January 19, 2011 3:17 PM GMT
Layed Bond in 1st game, think Ware bt him 1.5 - 0.5, was quite impressive, deserved win, if he plays the same or better hes got a chance, but Bond was quite poor, Thomson will be harder to beat.

was anyone around for the brett/royal game last night

that was weird, no firms were betting on it, and the price for royal was so big all match, I just kept thinking the game was already over and i was being sucked in
Report TheBongoMan January 19, 2011 3:34 PM GMT
Wasnt about m8. Royals very consistent drawing, but i think burnetts all round game will prove too good, 8/11 a good price.
Report scarecrow January 19, 2011 3:44 PM GMT
i think the second set was tied curly maybe brett was ahead in it till the last end perhaps although im not sure if this is correct or not.
Report curlywurly January 19, 2011 3:50 PM GMT
royal was 3-0 up in the 1st - could back at 2.2 for 400

he won the 1st set something like 9-3, brett all over the place

royal was about 4-1 up in the 2nd as well, you could back at 1.5

Anyone got thoughts on "womens" final between murphy and "miss" merrien? merrien won mixed pairs and been very consistent, murphy more experience, closed her game out well ystrday and the value bet at 7/4, merrien 2/5.
Report scarecrow January 20, 2011 12:41 PM GMT
bongo aussie 2/1 on here now looks very fair,merrien playing well but does have a habit of losing the final here.the aussie never played here b4 but is very experienced and must offer some value i suppose and perhaps worth taking a chance on as she did look a good player once she got going yeaterday.
Report TheBongoMan January 20, 2011 12:43 PM GMT
Agree, won everything there is to win in bowls, 1st time here as u say, but if this was outdoor i think the prices would be reversed, murphy certainly wouldnt be a 2/1 chance! Value bet.
