The Punt #39
We had three winners last week, with Tomo continuing his good form, Matt getting himself in the black, and Adrian finally grabbing his first win of the year. Despite this, he is still firmly rooted to the bottom of the ladder, so will need to continue to win if he is any chance of moving away from the wooden spoon position. Who are our punters backing this week?

————————————
Matt
NRL Round 2 – Canberra def Gold Coast @ $2.20 – The Raiders showed plenty in the wet last week to say they’ll be a challenger for the top eight, and while the Titans sit at the top of the table, they were simply not as bad as the Cowboys in their game. They won’t win enough games until they learn how to score points not off the boot of Scott Prince.
&
A League – Sydney FC v Melbourne Victory Draw @ $3.40 – As much as I’d like to see a Sydney win, these two teams are notorious for having draws, and with both looking like missing the finals, I don’t think they can muster up enough to grab a win either way.
=$7.48
Adrian
EPL – R28 Total Goals – Over 28.5 @ $1.87 – I’m thinking we’ll see plenty of goals this weekend.
&
NRL – Friday Total Score – Over 76.5 @ 1.90 – Manly and Wests Tigers could score plenty, while the Broncos should carve up the Cowboys.
= $3.55
James
AFL – Gold Coast Suns v GWS Giants – GWS @ $3.75 – I’ve taken a good lead, and I’m willing to take a chance on the Giants, who should enjoy playing against their fellow expansion side.
&
EPL – Everton v Tottenham – Everton @ $2.80 – After a week off, I sense an upset.
= $10.50
Tomo
NBA – Chicago v Orlando – Chicago @ $1.33 – The Bulls should be too strong.
&
NBA – Phoenix v Dallas – Dallas @ $1.55 – I’m doing this one for Adrian… Go Mavs!
= $2.06
David
SRg Rd3 Crusaders-Chiefs 09/03 – Crusaders @ $1.45 – This should be a good game but my money is on the red and blacks to pull off a victory.
&
SRg Rd3 Highlanders-Waratahs 10/03 – Head to Head – Highlanders @ $1.75 – The Highlanders were really good last week and showed that in their new stadium that they will be hard to beat. Too hard for the Waratahs to beat.
= $2.74
