Grand Final MVP - Betting

Then there is last season where Casey Prather had almost as much influence as Bryce Cotton and some could argue more consistent over the three games, but Cotton's 45 pt game won it.

It's voted game-by-game, 3-2-1, so Cotton must have got the votes in the earlier games as well.

From memory Hire came pretty close to getting it over Beal a few years ago

No.

Carfino made that claim during the presentation, but in reality it was simply that Carfino had given Hire his second-place vote for that game. I think those were the only votes Hire got from anyone on the panel (which had about five people on it) for the entire series. He was certainly nowhere near second place overall.

I don't think its always just purely on stats, but often is.

Remember Martin won the finals MVP in the series against NZ despite scoring very low, but his D across the board was influential.

Manu your logic isn't off except Ware @ $3 at semi final stage is short, okay if we were already up to the GF series and Utd were qualified into it. But then again everything is short at Australian corporate bookmakers... lol.

Maybe my logic is off, but I'm looking at it as a multibet.

Team to win championship and player to be best of the bunch in the grand final win.

United is $2.00 to win it all (which I think is fair), so that'd make Casper $3.00 to be the best player in his side. Good odds imo.

Some of those just make no sense, I think they left a zero off Cooke Jnr.

In terms of Value, I reckon Martin at $18. He's done it before, and he's capable of looking good in a losing team.

I actually think Ware is a little short. I imagine Melbourne must be favourites, but he's hardly a lock.

Also Cotton is very short considering the Cats are unlikely to make it.

Childres at $21 could be a good roughie

United is Casper's team. The $6 is a deserved favourite and probably a good enough price too

Gleeson was just laughing at Sobey's game last time they came to Perth. Sobes is a STREAKY guy who will have no impact on the finals if Adelaide even make it.

Boone at $11 as they look hard at stats in GF series. I think Ware Prather and Goulding will score but Boone will stand out
