Melbourne’s shock loss in Thursday night’s AFL pre-season match against Carlton has cost one unlucky punter $30,818.50.
Last year’s premiers were the clear favourites heading into the clash, entering the game the $1.22 favourites but it wasn't to be, going down to the Blues 98-93 at Marvel Stadium.
The $30,818.50 stake would’ve seen the punter win $37,598,57, a profit of $6.780.07.
Despite Carlton dominating proceedings for the majority, the Dees found themselves six points down with two minutes remaining, making the loss even worse.
One TAB punter has dropped $30,818.50 @ $1.22 on the Dees to win their pre-season clash with Carlton tonight! #AFL
