I can see most of that happening, apart from Estonia qualifying and Slovenia getting just 2 points. They should pick up at least 7 from Croatia alone.

That's what I thought, but I'm predicting those two points coming from the Netherlands. They're a bit weird like that. :P

I can see Denmaek doing slightly better than that, maybe im completly wrong but i can see Denmark taking a surprise top 5 placing in the final aswell.

 

Cal- dont know if you watched the eurovision show on rte 1 tonight (Monday) and Marty said the Netherlands are one of the faves,i wonder where he got that from as any odds i have seen have Netherlands ranked very very low.

Netherlands are very low in the odds, but then so was Austria in 2003 :kink:

I think Marty was just guessing about how people would react. I'm pretty sure most people watching here will love the Netherlands. It's just so upbeat and cheerful, which is exactly what most people in this country and in others need at the moment. Maybe the rest of Europe will recognize the charm and vote for it? :P

 

I wonder would the Netherlands be worth puting a small each way bet on ,as with their odds one could make a nice few quid if the did well.

No, because there's no way in hell they'll finish top four! :lol: The smart money's on Romania...

I don't see the Croatian jury going for Narodzabavni Rock. Anywhere between 1-6 points beckons for Slovenia methinks.

Really? I put a tenner each way on it about a month ago, but I just can't see it anymore :(

Romania each way I mean - certainly the best odds out of anything that stands a decent chance of coming top four :lol:

Wow. I was way off about the qualifiers! :lol:
