Boy am I looking forward to this one! It’s been a long hard year but finally the Rabbitohs have created a team which are sure to smash the “cocky” Roosters. What will make this victory even sweeter is it should put an end to the...

Big Jim's weekend wrap
It was all about the Tour de France this weekend. Bradley Wiggins and the rest of Team Sky have been incredible. For the uninitiated you could be forgiven for thinking there isn’t a great deal of tactics in cycling, but you’d be totally...

Golf Betting
The British Open takes center stage this weekend so let’s take a look at the huge range of golf betting options available for this tournament. Obviously, you can bet on any golfer to win, but with over 100 starters this can be problematic...
Big Jim's tip for 15 July: LA Angels
The classic East v West showdown: the Yankees take on the Angels. The Yankees have been very good this year whereas the Angels have been patchy. Nova will probably start on the mound for the second time this year against the Angels. He won the first...

Big Jim's tip for 14 July: Collingwood
Last year’s two grand finalists battle it out tonight at the MCG. The crumbling Geelong empire meet a wounded Collingwood who are coming off a nice long break. The Pies will be too good for the Cats tonight and I expect them to win by a wide...

Big Jim's tip for 13 July: Hurricanes
It’s the final weekend of the Super 15 regular season and fifteen hopefuls have been culled down to eight. The top three have already been pencilled in, leaving the remaining five teams to battle it out for the last three wild card positions...

Big Jim’s tip for 12 July: Steve Stricker
Mr Nice Guy, Steve Stricker, will be looking to win another John Deere Classic this weekend. Stricker is a confident player and this tournament is perfect for him. Players will be looking to hit some form before they jet off to the British Open the...
Big Jim’s weekend preview
It’s the last weekend of the Super 15 regular season, and unfortunately the schedule appears to list a lot of clear-cut games. It would have been nice to have seen a few interesting matchups, but that’s just the luck of the draw I guess...

Big Jim’s tip for 11 July: Bradley Wiggins
Fans of the humble bicycle are in heaven at the moment with the Tour de France in full swing. I have to admit, it’s enthralling television, especially when there is a pile up (I know I shouldn’t say that). It looks like it’s going...

Big Jim’s tip for 10 July: China
The “most gold medals” race is always a fascinating one, especially this year with China and the US battling it out. The US are slight favorites with most bookmakers, so you should be able to get better than even money on the Chinese...

Big Jim’s tip for 9 July: Cronulla
The Cronulla Sharks have been the surprise packet of the NRL this year. At the start of the season they were considered wooden spoon contenders, but with the representative season over and teams looking towards the finals, the Sharkies find...
Whistle happy
Nothing grates on me more than over policed sporting events. Officials are there to control the game not grind it to a slow and painful halt. The argument is that officials simply work to enforce the rules and they are not to blame if this inhibits...

It’s late at night and I’m watching the greatest tennis player of all time fighting it out on the grass courts of Wimbledon. Words just can’t describe how awesome Roger Federer is. He chewed up and spat out everything Murray dished...

Big Jim’s tip for 8 July: Yankees @ Red Sox
My two most hated teams in baseball line up tonight. However, you shouldn’t let my dislike of these franchises stop you from betting on a very important game. Tonight I am going to back “overs” in the run total. This means that we...

Big Jim’s tip for 7 July: Stormers
There’s nothing better in rugby than a good old fashioned South African derby. With only a few weeks left in the Super 15 season, it’s crunch time for many of the top teams. The Stormers head the table and have their destiny in their own...

Big Jim’s tip for 6 July: Carlton
You might accuse me of throwing good money after bad by backing the Carlton Blues again. To be honest I can’t stand the Blues, but I still think they represent value this weekend. To keep betting on a sporting team at the handicap is different...
