Given that I don't think there's any way the Blues can win at Suncorp, whoever grabs game one is well on the way imo




Admittedly I posted too soon as I was clueless about game #1 being in neutral Melbourne.

There is a reason for my avatar, and I'm usually it.

I read in the Telegraph (so I doubt how true it really is) that the NSW selectors got something right - robbie farah first man picked

Up at 5am tomorrow, won't be home until kick-off. Not sure if I'll be able to get on tomorrow, so I'll lock these in now (although the 5.5 is juiced at pinny )

NSW (+5.5) @ $1.99 (2)
 
NSW ml @ $2.89 (1)

If NSW lose it will no doubt be because of the Knights players

I assume the weather won't be a factor tonight - they'll roof up.  I'm leaning on the Blues +7.5 at $1.71, that way a late Lockyer field goal won't moose me.  GL All

Not sure if anybody else has more useful figures, but here are a few (unaudited) prices on years gone by:

2007 Game 1 (Suncorp):

QLD: $1.58
NSW: $2.35

Result: Qld won 25 – 18

2008 Game 1 (Stadium Australia):

QLD: $1.65
NSW: $2.20

Result: NSW won 18 – 10

I welcome any other numbers people have at hand...
