Brett Morris Crunched In From 25’s To 7/2 To Be NSW State Of Origin Fullback

St. George speedster Brett Morris has blasted into serious contention to be New South Wales fullback in Game 1 of the 2012 State of Origin series, shortening from $26 into $4.50 with online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.

After his excellent run of form, Morris has been the best backed candidate in sportsbet.com.au’s market, attracting 70% of all bets.

Canberra’s Josh Dugan remains favourite despite easing out to $1.80 while Jarryd Hayne has been the biggest drifter in the market, out to $4.50 after being opened at $2.65. Brett Stewart is also a shot, firming from $5.50 into $4.50.

“Josh Dugan remains favourite but if the decision was left to the punters it would be a forgone conclusion. Brett Morris would be wearing the number 1 jersey for the Blues in game one,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.

Any other player has firmed from $26 into $15.
