THIS THREAD IS FOR DICUSSING THE GRAND FINAL ONLY.

HOW SAINTS MANAGED THE DRAW:
#1 Lenny Hayes from 50m out.
#2 Goddard's leap with 6m left in the fwd 50
#3 Travis Cloke's left foot

Who else thought Goddard should've won Norm Smith?

Yeh but Goddard's screamers were worth 2x marks. Seriously though, I hope they don't change the rule. It's hilarious for everyone (except for y'know, the players.)

Not hilarious for EVERYONE; its AWESOME for the betting companies...more money...on a side note; what happens to the money? do the bookies keep it all?

^^ Would imagine the bet is refunded if a 'Draw' is not offered to bet on.

Bookies keep it. Draw was paying 34:1 apparently, would have been good to put $10 on that.

I picked Hayes for norm smith though so :)

Or they could be making TONS of money if a "Draw" is offered to bet on... Gambling sucks.

In reality the odds of a draw are way worse than 34:1, but yeah, they would have made a KILLING.

You sure? My dad said he got like ~60% of his bet back apparently. I think the companies just want you to go back and bet again.

Yeah, I thought on a draw you get half of the dividend because you like half won and half lost.

Yeah, I think that's a goodwill gesture because of next week...during the season you wouldn't get cash back if there was a drawn game
