Damn those Gold Coast Titans rumours

Then comes Four Corners or some other current affairs silhouette-type cloak and dagger interview, and off we go again!

WOODEN SPOON MARKET REOPENED WITH TITANS AT $21

Sportingbet Australia has reopened their wooden spoon market with the Gold Coast Titans as $21 chances after the NRL informed them there was no current investigation regarding the salary cap.

Sportingbet suspended betting on the wooden spoon yesterday morning after a flurry of bets came for the Titans as soon as the market was opened.

Sportingbet Australia CEO Michael Sullivan said the NRL’s statement came after Sportingbet had reported the transactions but as they had clearly stated there was no investigation underway, he was completely confident in reposting the market.

“The market back is up now for punters to bet on with the Titans still at $21, “ Sullivan said.

“I am sure if yesterday morning is any indication we will be taking plenty of bets on them but we have full confidence in the market now given the NRL’s statement.

“We had no choice but to suspend the market yesterday morning given the unprecedented run of bets for a side currently sitting fourth.”

Sportingbet Australia currently has the Cowboys as $3.00 favourites for the Spoon, without Melbourne Storm in the betting, ahead of Cronulla at $4.00 and the Knights at $5.00.
