Manly have pulled off a spectacular come-from-behind escape in a drama-filled finale against Penrith on Sunday to be one step closer to the NRL minor premiership.
In a result that leaves them two points clear on top of the premiership ladder ahead of a final round visit to North Queensland, Toovey's side trailed by 16 points midway through the second half but charged home to win by a point with a try inside the final 70 seconds.
While a filthy Jamie Soward was busy blowing up at the ref, one clever punter with Betjack was doing cartwheels after the Sea Eagles miraculous last-minute victory over Penrith turned $40 into $45,936!
The Betjack punter needed Manly to win by a margin of 1-12 points for the 6-leg multi to get up after successfully picking the correct margins in 5 earlier Round 25 matches.
The shortest price in the winning bet was the Raiders to beat the Tigers 13+ which paid $2.50 while the customer was gutsy enough to take the Knights to beat the Eels 13+ at $5.50.
“It’s hard enough to pick 6 winners in the NRL at the moment let alone pick the margins! To seal the deal with two tries in the final 4 minutes to Manly must have been quite a buzz for our Punter of the Week,” said a spokesperson for Betjack.
