LAST year Carlton opened the AFL season belting Richmond by 83 points, and punters believe it will be a case of deja vu when the pair meet in Round 1 at the MCG on Thursday night.
Carlton has been backed from $1.70 into $1.45, with Richmond drifting from $2.10 to $2.70, with Sportsbet.com.au
``We opened the Blues at $1.63, they got out to $1.70 before the punters really stepped in,'' Sportsbet.com.au's Matthew Campbell said.
``We haven't taken any leviathan bets, but a heap of $1000 and $2000 bets on Carlton. The biggest bet we have taken on the Tigers has been just $50.''
It is a similar story at TAB Sportsbet, with Carlton the only team the punters want.
``We are holding $4900 on the game and just $200 of that is on Richmond,'' TAB Sportsbet's Gary Davies said.
Davies said Blues admirers who want to take the $1.40 should act soon as the market is heading in one direction.
``With the sheer weight of money you'd expect Carlton's price to shorten; they are well backed and will be anchored in a stack of multi bets,'' he said.
