EVEN though the spring carnival has come to a close in Australia, the online bookmakers have not rested on their laurels heading into the latter stages of 2015.
With plenty of action across the A-league, the NBA and NFL, as well as several huge thoroughbred, harness and greyhound meets all throughout the week, there are plenty of great promotions and specials that our favourite online bookmakers have put together for their customers.
We have poured over the sites and delivered the best deals for the real punters who are looking to take advantage of the big events across the weekend.
A-League and international soccer specials
Even though all the major leagues from around the world are taking a break from the competitive landscape of club football, Australia’s A-league is still running throughout the international break.
