Grand Final Week Summary Notes

Additional bets (and reasoning to follow)

5u Panthers to win GF $2.00

Player of the Match (Clive Churchill Medal)

3u Jahrome Hughes $5.00

3.1u Nathan Cleary $4.80

 

For season long subscribers who have followed all bets, we will place an additional bet on the Panthers to win the GF to balance the ledger / book for the Grand Final  + Finals + Futures result.

This will then mean either can win on Sunday, and

Storm win = 9.25u profit on GF
Panthers win = 6.7u profit on GF

Grand Final  + Finals + Futures result:
Storm win = 51.3u profit
Panthers win = 49.8u profit

So additional bet is
5u Panthers to win GF $2.00

 

Grand Final – my personal view is that Storm win on Sunday, and will be my tip and betting play for any preview, radio or podcast

Both teams have played the same two opponents through the finals series, my view is the Storm have had tougher stronger form games and come through each stronger to the end (second half).

Suspect Panthers are a slight level behind the Storm, one is peaking for a GF appearance and win while for the Panthers they are nothing but class but now into a 5th straight GF with a strong line up but arguably the weakest of the last 5 years. Ivan is a master of big game motivation but think the Storm as they have the last two games get stronger as the game gets longer.

So tip is Storm to win, if it was a one out week I’d be betting the Storm, but to hedge the book and square the overall return result with either winner am placing a bet on Panthers.

NRL – MrG – Reading The Play

Having coached at a senior level for 16 years including 3 years on the coaching staff of an NRL club Gerard Condon is a long term avid student of the game. He’s coached sides to win titles at a senior level, run the football arm of a successful district club, managed professional players and worked in various development roles, so it’s fair to say the game of Rugby League is certainly in his blood and supports an experienced and unique offering.

Mr G’s NRL previews and betting tips combine this knowledge and ‘read’ of the current weekly form with a statistical and betting analysis to provide his followers with a unique and successful approach. He spends hours each week watching and reviewing each and every game assessing the strengths and weakness of the form to then weigh against that of the betting markets. His previews and betting tips have been published on the internet via two sports forums for 7 years prior to his public offering through Reading The Play.
