Josh Kennedy Firms In To Outright Brownlow Favouritism – Backed $251 In To $7.00
Despite starting the year as a $251 chance, Sydney’s Josh Kennedy has moved to equal favourite alongside Scott Pendlebury at $7.00 to win the Brownlow medal with online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
He has firmed following each round, before significant support from punters this week has seen him move into favouritism.
One punter saw the writing on the wall early and placed $50 each way on the midfielder as $251, with a collect of $15,725 should he win.
“It looks like we underestimated him early on. He looks to already have a few best on grounds to his name, with punters still happy to back him heavily this week and if he continues in this form, those who got on early will be keeping a very close eye on him,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
Despite looking likely to miss further weeks through injury, Gary Ablett is still firm at $8.00.
