    Norm Smith Medal - Darren Jolly injury sees money come for Brad Ottens

    Punters have backed Geelong from $2.05 to $1.87 to win the AFL Grand Final and have also launched a plunge on ruckmen Brad Ottens to win the Norm Smith Medal.

    Sportingbet Australia CEO Michael Sullivan said 90% of the money had been for the Cats this week while the injury doubt over Darren Jolly had seen punters single out Ottens as the value pick for best on ground.

    “We have seen bets of $10,000 and $5000 flow in regularly for the Cats and there hasn’t been a single good sized bet placed on Collingwood yet who have drifted from $1.75 to $1.97,” Sullivan said.

    “Brad Ottens has clearly been best backed for the Norm Smith Medal shortening from $41 to $26 and money is still coming for him.

    “Punters obviously feel he could dominate the ruck if Jolly is out or not at 100% and the fact he can go forward and kick a couple of goals is also a big plus.”

    “At this stage, Ottens is taking out four times more than any other player with the next best backed being fellow Cat, James Kelly.”

    Scott Pendlebury heads Sportingbet’s Norm Smith market at $5.00 ahead of Brownlow winner, Dane Swan at $6.50 with Joel Selwood the shortest of the Cats at $8.00.
