One Direction may be the hottest ticket in Australia right now, but they have a long way to go to reach ‘Bieber-mania’ according to sportsbet.com.au, with the online bookmaker opening a market on whether the boy band will have more Twitter followers than Bieber by this time next year.

Bieber, currently with over 22 million followers, is priced at $1.10 to hold out One Direction.

For those who think the band will overtake Bieber and build on their two million followers, $6.00 is on offer.

“It has been amazing how popular One Direction have been since arriving in Australia. They look like they are on the rise, but according to our market, still have a way to go until they get to Bieber’s level,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.

Punters believe GWS’s goalless first half last week was a one off, priced at $1.55 to kick a goal in the first quarter of their round 3 match against the West Coast Eagles with online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.

To kick their first goal in the second quarter is next in the market at $3.60, while those who think they will go goalless again in the first half can get odds of $7.00 for their first goal to be kicked in the third quarter.

The fourth quarter is priced at $10, while for no goal to be kicked at all is seen as a long shot at $13.

“They will no doubt be keen to make amends after a poor showing last weekend. Since the market opened the first quarter has easily been the best backed, but the other quarters have also had some support, so it seems punters are still unsure on how the Giants will go,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.

Despite leader Bob Brown’s sudden departure, online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au is tipping the Greens Party will have more MPs and Senators in parliament after the next Federal election than they do now.

Currently with 10, sportsbet.com.au has installed between 12 and 13 MPs and Senators as the $2.00 favourite ahead of 14-15 ($3.40) and 10-11 ($4.00).

“We think they’ll have a Senator in each state but might struggle to increase their presence in the House of Representatives where they currently have a sole member,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.

Between 8 and 9 is priced at $15 while 7 or less and 18 or more are the rank outsiders in the market at $100.

The Central Coast Mariners are the $2.05 favourites to win through to the A-League Grand Final on Saturday but punters with online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au are leaning towards a Perth Glory win.

The Glory are the $3.70 outsiders but have attracted 60% of the money in head-to-head betting.

“There is still decent support for the Mariners but we’ve seen a trend towards Perth as we get closer to the game,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.

“They’ve scored six goals in their last two matches as well so the $3.70 on offer for them has attracted many punters.”

Sportsbet.com.au is offering punters a ‘Red Card Refund’ for the match – if there is a red card at any stage of the game, we’ll refund all losing 1st goal scorer and correct score bets.

In Grand Final winner betting, Brisbane remain favourite to go back-to-back at $1.36 with the Mariners at $4.00 and Perth at $7.00.

Channel 7 has been installed as the network most likely to snare the most Logies by online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au but Channel’s 9 and 10 are in with a big show on Sunday night.

Seven has been priced at $2.75 to collect the most gongs however Nine ($3.00) and Ten ($3.25) aren’t far behind in the market.

“Seven is ahead in the market right now but Nine and Ten are not out of it by any stretch of the imagination.”

The ABC is next in the market at $9.00 ahead of SBS ($31) while Foxtel is the big outsider at $101.

Former rockstar Brian Mannix may work for online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au these days but even his work mates don’t give him much chance of winning this season’s Dancing With The Stars, pricing him at $41 to go all the way.

Danielle Spencer has moved into favouritism, firming from $4.50 into $3.75, while Johnny Ruffo isn’t far behind at $4.20.

Kerri-Anne Kennerley is next in the market at $6.00.
Former AFL star Brendan Fevola is also seen as a long shot alongside Mannix, priced at $34.

Working for sportsbet.com.au as a Content Developer hasn’t helped Mannix’s price when framing the market said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.

“We all love Mano in here, but after seeing him show off his moves around the office, we aren’t too sure how he will go! We hope he proves us wrong and goes all the way.”

“The punter wouldn’t have been happy with the round 1 effort, but there is a long way to go.”

Punters with online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au think it’s a battle between Badgerys Creek and the small town of Wilton to be the location of Sydney’s second airport with the suburbs the only ones to attract support.

Badgerys Creek remains the $1.80 favourite however Wilton has attracted the same level of interest from punters and has shortened into $13 from $21.

“The money has been just about even for both Badgerys Creek and Wilton,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said. “There has been absolutely no interest in any of the other locations including the Central Coast.”

Nepean (Western Sydney) remains second in the market but has drifted from $2.10 to $2.25 while Richmond has also eased, out to $15 from $11.
Windsor ($26) and Newcastle ($51) remain the rank outsiders in the market.

Punters are tipping that GWS won’t suffer another massive loss this weekend, with the line for their match against West Coast coming in from 105.5 to 99.5 after being well supported by punters with online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.

More than six times the money has been placed for the Giants to get within the line, with the line moving to 99.5 after Darren Glass and Matthew Priddis were rested from the Eagles team.

Regardless, the GWS v Eagles match is a $101 outsider to be the closest match of the round, with tonight’s Carlton v Collingwood match the favourite at $3.75.

“The money suggests the Giants will at least have a crack this weekend and being at home should help. But they still look up against it and regardless it looks unlikely to be a close game,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.

In individual betting, ball magnet Gary Ablett is the $4.75 favourite to get the most possessions for the round this weekend, with Dane Swan and Matthew Boyd next in the market at $6.00.
