Billy Slater And Cooper Cronk Head Sportsbet Dally M NRL Betting Markets

Unsurprisingly after their dominant start to the year, two Melbourne Storm players have emerged as clear favourites to win the Dally M Medal, with Billy Slater priced at $4.00 and Cooper Cronk at $5.50 with online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.

Paul Gallen is next in the market at $8.00 with Sam Burgess emerging as the value pick, now into $11 after starting as a $64 chance when the market opened.

“While it is unique to have two players from the same team as the top two favourites for the award, such has been Melbourne’s start to the year that we think Billy and Cooper have been clearly the two best players in the league,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.

“The Storm will have dominated the voting in all their games, so it will be interesting to see who takes votes off of who on the night.”

Storm Captain Cameron Smith is also in the market at $26.

However after scoring a double in every game to date, Slater deserves to be clear favourite.

“Those punters who got on him early at $12 will be feeling pretty good about themselves. There is a long way to go, but he looks to be in incredible form.”
