Manly is now a $2 favourite to win the 2013 NRL Grand Final, following the Sea Eagles’ impressive 30 to 20 come from behind preliminary final win over South Sydney tonight.
The Roosters are $2.60 to be NRL Premiers, ahead of Newcastle at $5.50.
“Obviously Manly are favourites because they’ve already booked their spot in the final, but there’s every chance after that performance tonight that they’ll stay favourites even once their opponent is known,” Sportingbet spokesman Andrew Brown said.
Punters expect Manly’s opponent to be the Roosters, who are $1.40 favourites to beat Newcastle at $3.05 on Saturday night.
