The NZ Warriors won just 8 games in 2013 and finished 14th on the NRL ladder, but punters at Sportingbet Australia are predicting a far more successful season for the Warriors in 2013.

Sportingbet Australia (http://www.sportingbet.com.au/partners.asp?btag=a_806b_464) CEO Michael Sullivan said the Warriors have been sensationally backed in all NRL markets in the past 48 hours.

“One punter just had $220,000 at odds of $2.25 on the Warriors to finish in the top 8 and we’ve also taken serious money on them to make the top 4 and even win the Premiership,” Sullivan said.

Other big bets on the Warriors in the past two days include $20,000 at $5.50 for them to make the top 4 while another punter had $10,000 at $21 on New Zealand to win the Premiership.

“It’s significant money for a team that didn’t perform well last year but with some new additions they’ve got the squad to push for a Premiership just like they did only two years ago,” Sullivan said.

Last year’s premiers Melbourne are a $5.50 favourite with Sportingbet Australia to win again in 2013 ahead of beaten grand finalists Canterbury at $7 and South Sydney at $9.
