The 2018 AFL finals series is finally here, with Richmond the team to beat as the $2.35 favourites with Sportsbet for the flag.
First on their list are the Hawks ($3.10), the Tigers head into the clash as the $1.37 favourite and have attracted over 83% of the total money in the market.
Melbourne are a $1.74 chance to win their first final appearance in over a decade against Geelong ($2.10), but punters with the online bookie are tipping the Cats will put an end to their finals dream with over 65% of the money headed their way.
Sydney ($1.74) are coming up against cross town rivals GWS ($2.10), with the money evenly split between the sides.
West Coast head into their qualifying final as a $1.60 chance against Collingwood ($2.35), with the Eagles attracting just over 65% of the money.
“There are seven teams out to ensure that the Tigers don’t go back-to-back with the premiership flag this year. West Coast have the home ground advantage over Collingwood this weekend so they look to be best placed to put an end to Richmond’s reign,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Ella Zampatti.
