I have a centrebet and bet365 account currently. Looking for other NRL/Super 15 heavy bookies that have a good sign up promo, anybody got any recommendations?

Not sure about sign up bonuses but betfair and pinny are your best options........9/10 you will get the best prices on the planet. Also of course live betting with betfair is sweet.

Theres no volume on the Crusaders market on betfair thats why if u look later in the week the prices will be much better.
Seriously betfair is a great option, alot to learn as a newbie though.
They have a online tutorial to help with that.

pinnacle don't have sign up or any kind of bonuses/promotions, just generally the best prices/lines

most of the aussie books have like a $100 free bet for signing up,

if you want to try rolling over bonuses most of the offshore books will probably be best, like the covers sponsored ones linked up top, a lot of em have shitty terms though, high rollover and some can have some uberbullshit withdrawal fees.

If you go bust or withdraw on bet365 in about 3 months of inactivity they'll send you a reload bonus the same as the sign up for new customers. I guess that's not really any help since you Kiwis can live bet everything online with em still and you probably want to keep bet365 funded.

sheesh i topped up 200....wouldn't find a reload bonus of 200 but definitely hard to stay away from them.

luxbet tell me im not eligible for a bonus because im an international customer...what a farce

william hill has a 25 quid/euro freebet sign up bonus, they have live betting as well and a huge range of sports, they no longer take aussie customers, apparently cause they cant verify the legality of sports betting here

Not sure about Kiwi's, if New Zealand is in the list of countries in the sign up page you're good to go.

titanbet the same deal, although not every nrl game is up live they do have super league and union games up live too, not as many options as bet365, a lot of the bets i've posted lately with a better line/price than what the aus books or bet365 have up is usually through titanbet, titanbet send out a lot of $10 freebets for major sports tourneys (soccer and tennis) as well. titanbet aren't very popular, but you'll find they have underdogs at great prices, often a dollar higher than even pinnacle and lines when changing due to late player changes aren't updated as fast as they are locally

the bonus rollovers on dodgy books like 5dimes, bodog and all those other books are often 5x, some can be 7x or even up to 12x!

make sure you get a pinny account, regardless of the lack of bonuses and mma prop bets, if i could only have 1 account it would be pinnacle, the sites a bit archaic and crappy but if you shop for the best price/line each week, 90% of your action will be on there.

It's only against the law for the Aussie books to offer bonuses or sign up incentive to Victorians I believe. Tell her to go fuck herself.

Someone like Hirschfelder knows the industry better though.

The new TAB website layout is the gay,looks like some apprentice web nerd got bored looking at the same thing over and over again so he/she just unnecessarily changed it

Jamiee Rogers ovaries deserve to explode if she doesn't sort this out

For anyone who doesn't follow horse racing this clip is pretty much the 80's version of Helmet Vs Sepoy. 

Ace, Your welcome

No live chat, email is the way.

IAS and sb are the same thing, if u bet under $200 a pop you should have no probs.....sportingbet very similar now to centrebet since the takeover,

Sportsbet aren't generally well liked, if you're only a rec punter they are fine. Although I've heard of them barring people from markets like fixed odds racing and limit whom they arbitrarily deem to be sharps or pro's. I've hit some decent multi's in MMA on them and have never had any issues, probably cause I give it all back on AFL and other random shit.

They do have 1.92 lines for AFL/NRL which are sometimes better than pinnacle have for offer offer.

Sportingbet have 1.91 lines, pretty good interface for horses and mutts. All the Aus books are pretty much the same, some will have better prices by 5/30 cents or so

Oh LLB and Ace I found out last week a few my uncles are in on some nag that runs 1400's in rural Victoria. I can't recall the name of it but I'll have to find out the name of it so you can make fun of it. They were saying it got up at 30/1 I told them they were full of shit, and they thought I was full of shit about hitting Swans 40+ at 10/1 and Gold Coast SU at 5.50 on the same weekend. I didn't mention that dug me out of the worst hole in AFL ever though
