State of Origin – NSW vs QLD 5th June 2013

May 29th, 2013 by admin

The first State of Origin game is almost upon us and with the betting being very close, I thought is was worth delving into some of the more specific and unusual bets available for a game of such magnitude.

Head to Head the betting is very close with New South Wales being marginal outsiders at $2.00 against Queensland’s odds of $1.83 and it was this closeness in the odds that drove us to look for better value bets in more specific markets.

First Score of the Game

You can bet on the team, and the type of score, and with a tight game predicted, perhaps those penalty odds are a little too large.

Queensland Try: $1.91
New South Wales Try: $2.10
Queensland Penalty: $10.00
New South Wales Penalty: $11.00
Queensland Drop Goal: $301.00
New South Drop Goal: $376.00

If you fancy a a bet on the State of Origin Race to 20 Points, you could do worse than back either side instead of backing them to win the game. The winning team is very likely to be the first side to 20 points, so by betting on this rather than the win you are effectively buying yourself an extra few percentage points.

Queensland First to 20 Points: $2.40
New South Wales First to 20 Points: $3.30
Neither: $2.60

Finally a winning margin bet might tickle your fancy, it it likely to be a close game, but a decent bet looks to be your chosen team to win by 6 to 10, again this is very likely and you can enhance your return over a straight head to head bet.

Queensland 6-10: $6.00
New South Wales 6-10: $7.00
