With the 2015 AFL season fast approaching William Hill have launched an AFL Pick The Ladder market.
The object is to correctly predict the entire AFL ladder for the 2015 season. William Hill obviously don’t rate anyone’s chances, so they are offering an astounding $100 million dollar prize to be shared equally between the winning bets. We understand that William Hill have taken out an insurance policy to cover for the event that someone wins.
Each bet costs $5 and there is a limit of 100 bets per client. At the time of writing this bet type is not available to residents of South Australia.
The market will remain open until 7 PM AEST on Friday, the of 17th April. This is just before the start of Round 3 so you can see the results of Rounds 1 and 2 before placing a wager.
