Rugby League State Of Origin Betting - The Basics

Centrebet's NRL State of Origin betting odds are some of the most talked-about prices because the rugby league representative series pits New South Wales against Queensland.

State of Origin betting at Centrebet is very popular, as the series is one of Australia's most watched sports events. More than three million television viewers tune in to see the Blues and the Maroons risk life and limb for rugby league bragging rights. The three annual 'state against state, mate against mate' matches, attract large crowds to some of Australia's best-equipped sports stadia.

Rugby League State Of Origin Betting - Bet Types

Centrebet offers its usual array of rugby league odds for State of Origin games between New South Wales and Queensland and also trades several exotic markets. Regular NRL betting odds include those offered on the match winner and the winning margin. Particularly popular is line or handicap betting, in which the underdog receives a hypothetical points start.

Man of the match is an unusual book which attracts significant interest, with Blues and Maroons fans free to bet on their favourite players (for example, Mark O'Meley of New South Wales and Darren Lockyer of Queensland) catching the eye of the voting panel during the 80 minutes of frantic football.

For three years now, the Maroons have held onto the Origin Shield. Their side of familiar faces - with a proven front line and youthful, energetic backs - have fought through everything NSW has thrown at them and continued to shine. A lot of credit can be paid to Coach Mal Meninga, a man who truely embodies all that Origin represents. The indomnitable spirit the man played with can now be seen alive in his players.

Yet pressure can lead to great things, and there's no doubt the Blues are feeling the heat. That was very apparent with the selection of the initial 40-man NSW Origin Squad, shown here. This new, young line-up may be the selector's idea of building a long-term solution to the contest. As many of these new faces come-of-age on the Nation's biggest League stage, the grit and efforts they build on could lead the the Blues dominating the Maroons for years to come.

However, the average punter doesn't care about 2011. They want the wins now! And as we head into League's greatest event, which of these side will rise to claim the 2009 State of Origin Shield?
