Richmond +44.5

Think of it as giving them a 44.5 point head-start. You win the bet if they lose by under that margin.

Richmond +44.5 mate ... Means they are giving you a headstart of 44.5 points (ie Richmond lost by 38 points and the bet pays), whereas the other bet will only pay if the Cats win by 45 points or more.

Yep, if they win, you still win the bet. Although you might be spewing you didn't have a piece of the $8.50 win - won't happen though.

If I heard correctly they are expecting storms at game time so could be low scoring too, which will help..
